Question
Why does my baby keep having diarrhea? Even after taking medicine, there’s no improvement, and the treatment doesn’t seem to work. What’s going on?
Answer
If a baby’s diarrhea is not severe and there are no other discomforts or abnormalities, it may be due to gastrointestinal dysfunction or poor digestion. After a detailed examination to determine the exact cause, active treatment should be pursued. In daily care, attention should be paid to proper diet, enhanced care, maintaining abdominal warmth, avoiding cold and dampness. It is appropriate to supplement digestive vitamins C and B-complex vitamins. If nausea or vomiting occurs, antiemetic medication can be taken. Specific treatment methods should be followed under the guidance of a clinical doctor. It is recommended that the baby eat some light foods, such as porridge made from millet.
