Question
If an infant’s diarrhea does not respond to medication, should bowel irrigation treatment be considered?
Answer
Based on the description, the infant’s diarrhea has not improved, and it is recommended to first regulate the gastrointestinal system. Over-the-counter anti-diarrheal medication can be taken, along with drinking plenty of warm water, avoiding cold water and fatty foods, and focusing on a light diet. Probiotics can also be supplemented. If diagnosed with a digestive disease, it should be treated actively in collaboration with a doctor, and attention should be paid to a balanced diet.
