Patient's question:
My daughter is four and a half months old. About a week ago, she suddenly started having diarrhea. Every time she urinates, she has a little bit of it, sometimes more. She has about ten episodes a day. Sometimes her stool is green with foam, and sometimes it's yellow curd-like. She has taken many medications, but it hasn't helped. Moreover, she doesn't cry or fuss and is in good spirits. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this is the first thing to consider testing the stool to clarify the diagnosis whether it is infantile indigestion, intestinal inflammation, or cold-induced intestinal dysfunction. If it is indigestion, it is recommended to take Montmorillonite powder and probiotics orally, and then umbilical patches to treat the navel; if necessary, go to the hospital pediatric department for intravenous treatment. Extend the interval between feeding... drink more water. If it is intestinal inflammation, it is recommended that you choose ampicillin for intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment. In order to avoid dehydration and fever, you can choose to take oral ibuprofen suspension to reduce fever treatment.
