Question

What should I do if my child has diarrhea?

Answer

For mild diarrhea in children, the most important thing is to prevent dehydration. It is recommended to give the child oral rehydration salts, a mixture of physiological saline, sugar, and baking soda. Follow the principle of small amounts and frequent feedings, using a spoon to feed every 6 to 8 minutes. At the same time, you can use Dinggui Er Navicular Plaster to alleviate symptoms, as well as medications such as MamiAi, Simida, and others. If formula feeding is involved, add water first when preparing the mixture, followed by the milk powder (powdered milk), and then add chrysanthemum crystal to the milk powder.
