Question

After receiving the vaccine on the 28th of last month, the child started to have diarrhea, and a high fever appeared overnight. How should it be handled?

Answer

Considering it might be related to malabsorption diarrhea or enteritis, it is recommended to conduct a routine stool test for a definitive diagnosis. When the stool test is normal, it is suggested to take probiotics and montmorillonite powder for treatment. If enteritis is suspected, cefixime suspension or coptis tablet treatment can be considered. For cases with recurrent high fever, it is recommended to examine blood routine for further diagnosis, and antibiotics or antiviral drugs can be considered if necessary. When diarrhea is severe, it is important to give more warm water and prevent dehydration.
