Question
After a baby has a cold and develops a fever, they experience diarrhea 3 to 4 times a day, accompanied by coughing and loss of appetite, and possibly vomiting. After hospital examination, it is confirmed to be gastroenteritis. How should it be treated?
Answer
The baby may have gastroenteritis and can be given pepsin or lactic acid bacteria medications, perform abdominal cold compresses, and ensure warmth. Avoid eating cold, spicy, or greasy foods and focus on light meals. If symptoms do not improve, the baby should be brought to the hospital for further examination and treatment.
