Question
My daughter is 86 days old, and she had vomiting a few days ago. We took her to the hospital, and the doctor said it was due to indigestion causing watery diarrhea. We’ve given her probiotics, montmorillonite powder, and Wensui Granules. The day before yesterday, she vomited a small amount of water again. There’s a little bit of stool water on every diaper, and she often burps and sneezes.
Answer
There are two main causes of baby diarrhea: first, indigestion, mainly due to improper diet and feeding. This includes overeating or consuming too much high-protein, high-fat, rough, and difficult-to-digest food, as well as eating excessive cold food, which can lead to gastrointestinal dysfunction and diarrhea; secondly, gastrointestinal infections can also cause diarrhea. If the food and feeding utensils are contaminated with bacteria or viruses, it can lead to inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in diarrhea. Here are several dietary therapy methods for treating “baby diarrhea”: Boil some charcoal several times a day and add water to it. This method is said to treat children with chronic diarrhea.
