Question

My son is one week old, and he has had diarrhea for four days. The medication hasn’t improved his condition. What should I do? His diarrhea is like egg whites when he takes the Montmorillonite Powder.

Answer

Based on the situation you described, your child may be suffering from pediatric diarrhea. In this case, in addition to continuing to administer the Montmorillonite Powder, you can consider giving your child the Shanyin Baihu powder to help improve the symptoms. At the same time, pay attention to your child’s diet and avoid giving them spicy, greasy, or sugary foods. Offer easy-to-digest foods like millet congee instead. It is recommended that you take your child to the hospital as soon as possible so that the doctor can diagnose the condition and take further treatment measures, such as intravenous therapy, to prevent dangerous situations like dehydration. Additionally, be mindful of your child’s buttock skin care and use medication under the guidance of a doctor.
