Patient's question:
Recently, the child might have eaten something that disagreed with them, as they have been having diarrhea. At first, we thought it was just a simple case of indigestion, but to our surprise, after several days, the child is still the same with no improvement. As parents, we are very worried, so I would like to know how to treat the symptoms of infant diarrhea?Doctor's answer:
If the child's diarrhea has persisted for several days, or if the child is not in good spirits, showing symptoms such as fever, abdominal pain, etc., it is possible that there may be intestinal inflammation. This situation requires visiting a pediatric department in the hospital for thorough examinations such as blood and stool tests. It is necessary to consult a doctor to identify the cause and follow the doctor's advice for medication. If the tests show significant inflammation, a large number of anti-inflammatory drugs and symptomatic medications should be used for treatment.
