What to Do When a Baby Has Diarrhea

Question

My 8-month-old daughter has been suffering from diarrhea for nearly ten days. We’ve gone to the hospital for tests and have tried probiotics, but the condition hasn’t improved. Later, we tried acupoint stickers for three days, but they didn’t work either. I’m wondering if it could be lactose intolerance. Our feeding is mixed, and I’m not sure if the issue is with breast milk or formula milk?

Answer

Considering it might be food-induced enteritis, it’s recommended to seek medical attention at the hospital. Fluid replacement treatment may be necessary. In terms of daily life, pay attention to balancing work and rest, ensure adequate sleep, and avoid overexertion. In terms of exercise and leisure, maintain appropriate physical activity and exercise to keep a healthy body. For diet, pay attention to reasonable food pairing and prepare nutritious meals for the baby.
