Question
Why do children keep having diarrhea?
Answer
It is recommended to check if the child’s stool test indicates indigestion or enteritis. Also, be aware of whether the cold has caused intestinal dysfunction. If it’s indigestion, it’s suggested to take oral medications like Shanyao Jianpi Oral Liquid and Simida, and in severe cases, consult a doctor for intravenous treatment. Extend the interval between feedings to allow the gastrointestinal tract to rest. Give the child plenty of water. If introducing new complementary foods, it should be temporarily paused or reduced until symptoms improve and then gradually resume. Pay special attention to avoid giving children indigestible foods.
