Question
Childhood diarrhea occurs unexpectedly, and after several days of treatment, the symptoms have slightly improved but there is still slight diarrhea. Doctor, how should we prevent a recurrence of childhood diarrhea? Can you provide some specific suggestions?
Answer
To prevent childhood diarrhea, first ensure that the child’s diet is balanced and healthy. Avoid overfeeding the child to prevent indigestion and subsequent diarrhea. At the same time, keep the child’s abdomen warm and avoid catching a cold. If the child is still breastfeeding, the mother’s diet should primarily consist of light, warm, and easy-to-digest foods, avoiding cold, hard, and stimulating foods.
