Question

After my baby has diarrhea, they lose their appetite and their food intake decreases. Sometimes their stool is hard, and sometimes it’s watery. How can I improve their condition?

Answer

After a baby has diarrhea, their gastrointestinal function may not have fully recovered, leading to a loss of appetite. Parents can try giving the baby some particularly thick rice porridge or make yam millet porridge to improve the baby’s appetite. If the symptoms persist, it is recommended to take the baby to the hospital for a check-up to receive professional medical advice.
