Question
My child has been very disobedient lately, crying and fussing constantly, and has experienced diarrhea again. We took them to the hospital for a check-up but no issues were found. I would like to know how to handle diarrhea when it recurs in infants.
Answer
When infants experience diarrhea again, carefully observe for symptoms such as large amounts of watery stool and increased frequency of bowel movements, and be aware of signs of dehydration. If the symptoms are severe, intravenous fluid replacement can be used to replenish fluids and stabilize the microcirculation. Moreover, ensure the infant stays warm and avoid letting them catch a cold to help ease the symptoms.
