Question
A one-year-old girl has been experiencing persistent diarrhea, occurring two to three times a day, and has been diagnosed with dyspepsia after an initial examination. However, there has been no improvement after taking digestive medications. She is currently using medications such as Montmorillonite Powder and others. Experts, how should this situation be handled?
Answer
Diarrhea in children is a common disease during childhood, especially during the transition from summer to autumn when it is more prevalent. Severe cases may be accompanied by fever. The main causes of persistent diarrhea in children are often infections, such as gastrointestinal inflammation caused by bacteria or viruses, or improper diet. Treatment should be selected based on the child’s specific condition. It is recommended to seek the diagnosis and treatment of a professional physician to ensure the child’s health.
