Patient's question:
Diarrhea has lasted for more than twenty days. I have taken diarrhea medication and diarrhea formula, but it still hasn't stopped. It happens multiple times a day, and often when I pass gas, it comes out as well. The stool is watery. What treatment should I do?Doctor's answer:
If the stool is inflamed, antibiotics should be used as early as possible for treatment. Most probiotics cannot treat it. If the infant still has diarrhea, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a routine stool examination. If there is still an infection, additional antibiotics may be needed. If there is no infection, it may be due to gastrointestinal dysfunction caused by early diarrhea. The diarrhea has not been treated yet. It is recommended to continue taking probiotics and anti-diarrheal medication slowly. Pay attention to feeding hygiene, and have a follow-up stool examination after three days.
