Question

Recently, some parents have reported that their children have experienced diarrhea symptoms, despite having tried medication but with little improvement. The parents are urgently seeking the most effective treatment method for children’s diarrhea.

Answer

Diarrhea is a common gastrointestinal disorder in children. First and foremost, determining the cause of diarrhea is crucial for effective treatment. When diarrhea first appears, a routine blood test should be conducted, and appropriate antiviral or anti-inflammatory medications should be chosen based on the cause. At the same time, digestive and spleen-stomach herbs should be used to treat diarrhea, and sufficient fluids should be consumed during the treatment process. It is also important to keep the abdomen warm and to adjust the diet.
