Question

My one-year-old baby has recently been suffering from severe diarrhea, accompanied by a high fever. What should I do?

Answer

Based on your description, your baby’s condition may be caused by bacterial dysentery. It is advisable to take the baby to the hospital for an examination and treatment immediately, where the doctor will typically prescribe antibiotic therapy. During the baby’s treatment, be sure to keep them well-hydrated and avoid feeding them spicy, cold, and other irritating foods.
