Patient's question:
An 8-month-old baby has been experiencing frequent diarrhea, and I am very worried. The child's symptoms keep recurring, and we have already had some tests done. I hope the doctor can help us.Doctor's answer:
Child diarrhea, also known as indigestion, is a digestive disorder caused by dysfunction of the spleen and stomach. It often leads to malnutrition in children, delayed growth and development, and conditions like kwashiorkor. Massage therapy is effective for this condition, but other treatments should not be excluded, especially when infection factors are present. Antibiotics and other medications can be used concurrently. In cases of dehydration and poisoning symptoms, intravenous fluid therapy should be administered promptly. It is recommended to undergo examination before starting treatment.
