Question
A 5-month-old baby has started to show signs of hoarseness in the throat, accompanied by phlegm, and began experiencing diarrhea on the second day.
Answer
Hello, based on your description, your child may be suffering from diarrhea caused by indigestion, enteritis, or catching a cold. Firstly, it is important to confirm the cause. If the baby has only mild diarrhea and is in good spirits, you can consider giving them probiotics such as Mommy Love or Bifidobacterium Live Bacteria Preparation, or taking intestinal health supplements. You may also consider adding antibiotics such as cephalosporin drugs. If the diarrhea is severe and medication is ineffective, intravenous fluid therapy may be required.
