Patient's question:
Xiao Bao has been sick for 15 days, possibly due to a cold. He has had diarrhea for 3 or 4 days, with no other symptoms. He has a bowel movement 5-6 times a day, and the stool is yellow with curds. Is it serious? Should he see a doctor? Or what should he eat?Doctor's answer:
It can be treated with Traditional Chinese Medicine, but it also depends on the severity of the child's diarrhea. It is recommended to extend the feeding interval to allow the stomach to rest properly. Drink more water. If you are adding complementary foods, you should pause the addition. Or reduce the amount of complementary food added. Gradually resume after improvement. Especially avoid foods that are too heavy for you. It is still recommended to pay more attention to rest daily and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
