Question
My baby has been suffering from diarrhea for four days. For the first two days, he had diarrhea several times a day, with particularly watery yellow stools. After being administered intravenous fluids for two days, the stools have become thicker, with three to four bowel movements a day. He is not interested in eating and lacks energy.
Answer
Baby’s diarrhea may be due to gastrointestinal dysfunction syndrome, possibly related to viral or bacterial infection, or abdominal cold. It is recommended to conduct a routine stool test for diagnosis. Treatment can include using products like Mamila or Yigan San for opsonize. Additionally, it is important to massage the baby’s abdomen regularly, ensure adequate hydration, and maintain warmth.
