Question
My child had a severe bout of diarrhea when they were two months old, and their bottom was severely irritated. Now that they are older, they still have intestinal inflammation and tend to have more frequent bowel movements. Additionally, they have been spitting up since they were a baby until now, at six months old. I’m seeking assistance: How do you treat intestinal inflammation in children?
Answer
Pediatric enteritis can be treated with different treatment plans based on the type of pathogen. It is particularly important to pay attention to electrolyte balance and encourage therapy. If the intestinal infection is caused by bacteria, antibiotics can be administered for treatment, while viral enteritis mainly focuses on supportive therapy.
