Question
My child has been experiencing diarrhea recently. The stools were initially hard and then became loose, yellowish with some greenish hues. Since he had a bit of constipation before, I have been giving him bananas every day. Yesterday, he didn’t have diarrhea, so I was worried about constipation and gave him bananas in the afternoon. When making noodles last night, I added some bone soup and shrimp meat. What should I do?
Answer
Based on past treatment experiences and outcomes, it is recommended that you take your child to the hospital for a check-up and treatment, and follow the doctor’s advice on medication, such as Simethicone, Mamylove, and umbilical cord plasters. Additionally, pay attention to your child’s diet, avoid overeating certain foods, and ensure adequate water intake. If your child exhibits symptoms of nausea or vomiting, try some simple care methods, such as focusing on defecation, preventing dehydration, and appropriately replenishing fluids. If the symptoms do not improve, it is advisable to seek medical attention immediately.
