Question
Yesterday afternoon, the child had diarrhea twice, once at night, and the stool appeared to be indigestible with an acid and foul smell. During sleep, there were occasional coughing sounds, clear nasal discharge, and at 6 PM, the body felt slightly warm with a measured temperature of 38.1 degrees. Previous treatment and effects: Half a packet of Min Gong Zai Xin was given, and the forehead felt less hot. What kind of help is needed: How should medication be administered?
Answer
Based on the information you provided, the child has had diarrhea for a longer period, and during routine checks, there were white blood cells present, but the current results are normal, indicating that the diarrhea may be caused by indigestion. At the same time, the child showed symptoms of a cold on the 9th, such as nasal discharge, sneezing, and coughing. Due to the multiple symptoms, treatment should focus on treating the cold, aiding digestion, and regulating the intestinal flora. Medications such as Intestine Health Promoter, Mami Love, and Pediatric Diarrhea Calm can be given to treat the diarrhea. Intestine Health Promoter is in capsule form and needs to be opened to mix the powder with water for consumption. At the same time, ensure the child drinks plenty of warm water to prevent dehydration. For cold symptoms, medications like Pudendula Blue Oral Liquid and Pediatric Cold Syrup can be administered to the child.
