Doctor's answer:

Child diarrhea is generally divided into bacterial nausea and vomiting, viral diarrhea, and physiological diarrhea. Viral diarrhea usually involves a larger amount of nausea and vomiting and looser stools. Antiviral treatment can be administered. If there is a recurrence of electrolyte imbalance, timely supplementation is necessary. Bacterial nausea and vomiting typically have mucous stools. Sensitive antibiotics should be taken orally. If it is physiological diarrhea, supplementing with probiotics can usually cure it.
