Question

How should a child with pneumonia and diarrhea be treated?

Answer

For your baby’s condition, it is advised to seek further diagnosis at a hospital to determine the progress of the pneumonia treatment and whether indigestion is caused by gastrointestinal discomfort due to the use of antibiotics. It is currently not recommended to administer medication on your own. You can first conduct a stool test to determine if there are any other issues besides gastroenteritis before proceeding with appropriate treatment. At the same time, ensure your baby drinks plenty of water, as this can often resolve on its own without cause for concern. This is the response to your question, hoping it will be helpful to you.
