Question
A young child frequently experiences diarrhea, and routine stool tests show white blood cell counts of approximately 7-9. After four days of anti-inflammatory medication treatment, the white blood cell count dropped to 0-3. However, during the follow-up visit after stopping the medication, the white blood cell count rose again to 4-7. How should this situation be handled?
Answer
Based on the description, this situation may involve acute gastroenteritis, and it is recommended to consider using anti-inflammatory, anti-emetic, and anti-diarrheal medications for treatment. The diet should be light, and hospital intravenous treatment should be sought if necessary to prevent electrolyte imbalance. Performing drug sensitivity tests to find sensitive drugs will help improve the effectiveness of treatment. It is suggested to go to the hospital for regular stool tests and colonoscopy to treat according to the results of the examination.
