Question
What are the possible causes of frequent diarrhea in an 11-month-old baby?
Answer
Frequent diarrhea in an 11-month-old baby may be due to dietary changes, viral infections, or bacterial infections. In such cases, the baby may exhibit symptoms of listlessness. It is recommended to use Huoxiang Zhengqi pills and Norfloxacin capsules for treatment, and to ensure adequate water intake to maintain electrolyte balance. For severe cases, fluid replacement may be considered. Additionally, cooperate with some anti-inflammatory and antibacterial treatments, such as using pediatric sulfamethoxazole granules, Liothyronine granules, and Simetium, may be effective. At the same time, attention should be paid to observing any changes in the baby’s symptoms, and immediate medical attention should be sought if necessary.
