Patient's question:
The baby has been having diarrhea since two days ago and has not stopped. At first, I thought he had caught a cold, so I didn't pay much attention. But he has been having diarrhea all morning today. When I took him to the hospital, the doctor said he was already dehydrated. I want to know how to treat dehydration in babies?Doctor's answer:
In the case of the baby experiencing nausea and vomiting again, if timely treatment is not implemented, it may lead to the recurrence of dehydration. When dehydration occurs again, symptoms such as sunken eyes and reduced skin elasticity in the baby may reappear. If the baby is dehydrated again and treatment is not administered promptly, it may result in a recurrence of dangerous situations for the baby. It is necessary to provide timely hydration and dietary adjustments.
