Patient's question:
My baby is only four months old and has been having some diarrhea recently. The child is too young, and I'm afraid to give medicine to the baby, so I wanted to ask, what should I do if a four-month-old baby has diarrhea?Doctor's answer:
The child is still quite young, so medication is not recommended at this stage. If the child has already started eating solid foods, it would be best to stop for a while. The mother should also pay attention to her diet and avoid greasy or spicy foods, as this could affect breast milk. At the same time, it's important to maintain good oral hygiene for the child to prevent bacteria from entering the mouth. Additionally, ensure the child is well-warmed, but be particularly careful not to burn them.
