How to treat a 5-month-old baby who has diarrhea for a week?

Answer

If your 5-month-old baby has been suffering from diarrhea for a week, there are several points to consider during treatment. Firstly, avoid letting the baby catch a cold or feed them improperly. Secondly, since it is related to poor digestion, follow the doctor’s guidance when feeding the baby and avoid overfeeding. You can also consider combining pediatric Chinese medicine massage therapy, which often yields quicker treatment results. For parents, it’s important to help the child treat their illness as soon as possible. Additionally, pay attention to the baby’s daily diet and ensure a balanced intake of nutrients; avoid excessive supplementation and malnutrition.
