Question
Started having diarrhea on the second day after receiving the A-group meningococcal vaccine on December 12th. The condition fluctuates, and it’s been 5 days now; no medication has been used.
Answer
If the cause is indigestion, it is recommended to take Simethicone and Mamila, and combine them with Dinggui’er belly button patches for treatment. If the situation does not improve, it is suggested to go to the pediatric department of a hospital for intravenous treatment. At the same time, extend the interval between feedings and increase fluid intake. If the cause is enteritis, then ampicillin should be used for intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment. Diarrhea in children often causes parents concern, and general treatment methods should be adopted during treatment, with timely medical attention to avoid affecting the child’s growth and development.
