Question

The infant has a fever of 39°, no runny nose, but with diarrhea, showing no improvement after treatment at a rural health center.

Answer

Based on the description, the infant’s symptoms are mainly acute gastroenteritis. It is recommended to adopt rehydration and anti-inflammatory drip therapy, supplemented by medications such as Mamila and Simeta. The diet should be light. Proper home care methods are crucial in treating childhood diarrhea to speed up recovery and avoid affecting the child’s growth and development. Parents should take immediate correct measures to help the child recover from diarrhea.
