Question
Children in the kindergarten are experiencing severe diarrhea, which occurs frequently and is accompanied by crying. How should one handle children’s diarrhea?
Answer
Children’s diarrhea is a digestive system syndrome caused by various pathogens and factors, characterized by increased frequency of bowel movements and changes in stool consistency. It can be categorized into infectious and non-infectious diarrhea based on the cause. Infectious diarrhea may be caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi, or parasites, while non-infectious diarrhea might be due to improper diet or changes in weather (such as catching a cold). If a child shows symptoms of diarrhea, it is advisable to visit a pediatric clinic for examination to determine the cause and receive appropriate treatment. In daily life, attention should be paid to reasonable feeding and the cultivation of good hygiene habits. Wishing for the healthy growth of the child.
