Question
What should parents do when their 8-month-old baby often has diarrhea?
Answer
Diarrhea in an 8-month-old baby can be caused by viral infections or indigestion. Treatment primarily focuses on symptoms, and if diarrhea is severe, it is essential to replenish fluids promptly to prevent dehydration. If accompanied by bloating and vomiting, it may be a sign of disharmony in the spleen and stomach. Consider using medications like pediatric Wenshen Granules for opsonize, along with probiotics. It is recommended to use Simo Decoction Oral Liquid to relieve bloating and aid digestion, thereby improving the baby’s digestive function and alleviating diarrhea issues.
