Question
Children often experience diarrhea during winter, medically referred to as winter diarrhea. How should one properly handle this situation?
Answer
When children suffer from diarrhea during the winter, it is usually due to catching a cold in the cold weather. To alleviate this symptom, it is first important to adjust the child’s intestines and consider giving probiotics to improve intestinal health. Additionally, in cases of severe diarrhea, the timely use of attapulgite powder can help control the symptoms. However, the use of attapulgite powder should be under medical guidance and only used when necessary.
