Patient's question:
Recently, I noticed that the child's stool has been consistently containing something that looks like egg-like curds, and it appears quite watery. Why is the child having such stools?Doctor's answer:
For children with diarrhea and a curd-like substance, it may be due to their intestines being cold. During this time, it's important to give the child more water, as drinking water can help alleviate symptoms of poor digestion or intestinal coldness in the child. Additionally, such symptoms might also be caused by the child not being properly warmed up while sleeping. It's essential to frequently warm and protect the child from the cold. This situation is likely caused by the child catching a cold while sleeping, or possibly by not paying attention to covering themselves with a blanket at night.
