Question

My son started having diarrhea this morning and by evening, he hasn’t eaten much. I don’t know what to give him and am worried it might worsen his diarrhea. I want to know, what is the best food for a child with diarrhea?

Answer

If a ten-year-old child experiences mild diarrhea, attention should be paid to their diet. You can try giving them congee and rice porridge, which are easy to digest. Additionally, if there is an increase in bowel movements, consider a regular stool examination and choose appropriate medication for treatment.
