Question
The baby is 38 days old and is breastfed. The baby has had diarrhea for half a month. One week ago, the baby had a routine stool test at the hospital, and the results showed yellow watery stools and a positive rotavirus. The doctor prescribed Bifidobacterium and Senna Stomachic Plaster. After taking them, the stool test yesterday still showed yellow loose stools and a positive rotavirus. The doctor then prescribed four-season antiviral compound and Senna Stomachic Plaster, as well as Mommy Love. There has been no improvement so far. The child always sticks out the tongue, feels nausea, and occasionally vomits. The stomach always makes gurgling sounds, but there is no fever. Stools occur on average 4-5 times a day, and the baby eats milk every two hours. Is this condition serious? How should it be treated?
Answer
Hello, based on the child’s symptoms, this is a case of diarrhea caused by indigestion. I suggest taking an intestinal health supplement for treatment.
