What should I do if my child has persistent diarrhea?

Patient's question:

My child is only 6 months old. Recently, for the past 5 days, he has been experiencing nausea and vomiting, which is much worse than before. Neither medication, intravenous fluids, nor oral medication has helped. The child is so young, and I'm very worried. Is there any better dietary method to try, or are there any Western medicines that could be taken? I feel extremely anxious seeing the child in pain. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

The reasons for children's diarrhea are due to many different situations. It depends on what caused the child's diarrhea. In the first case, it is necessary to check whether it is due to eating some unclean food or consuming some food that is difficult to digest. In the second case, it is necessary to see if there is a possibility of the child's abdomen being exposed to cold. If the child's abdomen is exposed to cold, it may lead to this situation again. It is recommended to consume some bifidobacteria.
