Question
I’m worried that my child has been experiencing frequent diarrhea for several days and has not recovered. I suspect it might be due to viral infection. How should this kind of diarrhea be treated?
Answer
When your child is infected with a virus, consider giving them antiviral medication during the diarrhea. At the same time, provide them with light and easy-to-digest foods, such as clear soups or porridge. Ensuring adequate hydration is also crucial for their recovery. Avoid long-distance travel and allow your child to rest more, which will help in their physical recovery.
