Question
A four-month-old baby has been experiencing diarrhea for several days, accompanied by milk curd and watery stools, with no apparent changes in the mucous membrane. What should be the treatment approach?
Answer
The baby may be suffering from indigestion or weakness in the spleen and stomach, and it is recommended to seek the assistance of a pediatric Chinese medicine doctor. Treatment can be administered through traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, or massage. In terms of Western medicine, you can try using the Zhongzhong Wan to alleviate symptoms. Since the baby is only four months old, it is suggested to grind the pills into powder and dissolve them in boiling water for administration. The dosage should be one-fifth of the adult dosage.
