Patient's question:
The child has been living in Shanghai and recently returned to their hometown. However, after coming home for three or four days, they started experiencing diarrhea. They visited a doctor in their hometown and received injections and intravenous drips, but it has been more than 20 days now, and their condition has not improved. I would like to consult about this.Doctor's answer:
When traveling, if the infant experiences traveler's diarrhea, please seek medical attention promptly at a reputable hospital. Take some anti-diarrheal medication, and try to avoid feeding the infant high-protein or hard-to-digest foods. Instead, consume more fruits and vegetables. To prevent dehydration, ensure the infant drinks plenty of water.During the infant's traveler's diarrhea, probiotic supplements can be given to aid digestion, regulate the infant's gut probiotics, and balance the body's digestive system. It is also appropriate to feed the infant easily digestible and nutritious foods such as yogurt or rice soup.
