Question
What to do when a child has diarrhea and medication isn’t helping?
Answer
Infants have underdeveloped absorption functions and grow rapidly, requiring a lot of calories and nutrients. In daily care and feeding, even slight mismanagement can easily lead to nausea and vomiting. It is recommended to pay attention to keeping the baby’s abdomen warm during care to enhance gastrointestinal movement; ensure the baby gets enough deep sleep for complete body recovery; and introduce complementary foods based on softness and easy digestibility.
