Question
Started with diarrhea in August last year, with mucous-like stools and a pale color after dinner. Medical treatment involving intravenous fluids was ineffective, and it was later found to be parasitic disease. In May this year, there was another occurrence of mucous-like diarrhea after dinner. Is it a recurrence of parasitic disease?
Answer
Based on your description, it may be a recurrence of parasitic disease. It is recommended that you take your child to the hospital for treatment. At the same time, pay more attention to preventive measures in daily life. In terms of diet, consume more foods rich in high-quality protein, such as eggs, milk, and soy products. Additionally, regular check-ups and vitamin supplementation are advised. To determine the cause of the disease, further examination at the hospital is needed, as diagnosis cannot be made solely based on textual descriptions. Moreover, it is important to rule out similar issues caused by incomplete treatment or failure to change poor living habits. Considering the child’s history of infection and the recurrence of similar symptoms, it is recommended that you undergo a check-up first.
