Question

If a ten-month-old baby suddenly has diarrhea, accompanied by crying, it might be stomachache. How should one handle it?

Answer

Based on the described symptoms, it is considered that the diarrhea might be due to dyspepsia and heat. It is recommended to take oral pepsin preparations to aid digestion, oral probiotics to regulate the gastrointestinal tract, and oral attapulgite powder to stop diarrhea. To replenish fluids, you can take oral rehydration salts dissolved in water in small amounts, multiple times. During this season, acute gastroenteritis in babies is often cold syndrome, and a belly button patch can be used. Wishing for a quick recovery!
