Question
My daughter has been suffering from diarrhea since birth, and despite taking many medications, there has been no effect. Although she has diarrhea, she is not losing weight. When I was expressing milk at four months old, I had a fever of over 38 degrees and was treated with intravenous fluids for seven days. During my fever period, she kept breastfeeding, and it took her a week after breastfeeding to have a bowel movement. About half a month later, she also caught a fever and was treated with intravenous fluids at the county hospital for a week before she started having diarrhea again, and she has started to lose weight.
Answer
Hello, if a child experiences diarrhea, the first consideration is indigestion, enteritis, or catching a cold. It is essential to first determine the cause. If the child has simple diarrhea but is in good spirits, you can give them some Mommy Love or bifidobacteria probiotic preparations, or consider taking intestinal health supplements and adding cephalosporin anti-inflammatory medication. If the diarrhea is severe and medication is ineffective, immediate intravenous therapy is needed.
