Patient's question:
The child is nine months old and suddenly started vomiting and having diarrhea. They went to the hospital for a stool test, and the doctor said it was caused by indigestion. It has been five days, and the diarrhea is still not stopping. Is there any good solution?Doctor's answer:
Children's gastrointestinal tracts are much more fragile than adults', so they are more susceptible to external influences, such as diarrhea, constipation, vomiting, and other intestinal diseases. When children have diarrhea or vomiting, it affects their growth and development, and timely and effective treatment should be administered. Generally, the main causes of children's diarrhea and vomiting are dietary issues, such as children eating cold food, indigestible food, or unclean food, which can cause some damage to their gastrointestinal tracts, leading to vomiting and diarrhea.
