Question
What diseases can diarrhea in children lead to?
Answer
The causes of a baby’s diarrhea may include colds, food issues, or intestinal infections. Different causes necessitate different treatment approaches. Diarrhea caused by colds or dietary issues can be treated with oral medications that aid digestion and replenish nutrients, such as digestive and replenishing oral liquid or probiotics to adjust the intestinal flora. If enteritis is the cause, antibiotic treatment may be required. In cases of severe vomiting, it is recommended to go to the hospital for intravenous fluid therapy to prevent dehydration. Severe dehydration in children can lead to electrolyte imbalance, even posing a risk to life.
