Question
I’ve had diarrhea for three days. For the first two days, it wasn’t severe, with only three bowel movements a day. Today, by 6 PM, I’ve had six bowel movements. This morning, the stool was sticky with milk-like particles, and in the afternoon, it was watery. What should I do?
Answer
In this situation, it is necessary to consider a hospital examination of a stool routine to determine the possibility of bacterial infection. If there is a bacterial infection, this condition may require the consideration of taking antibiotic medications for treatment. During treatment, it may also be considered to use probiotics and other medications for treatment. It is now recommended to definitely give your child adequate hydration and follow the doctor’s advice for treatment.
