Question
Is unexplained diarrhea a disease? I’ve been experiencing diarrhea from yesterday afternoon until today. I haven’t seen a gastroenterologist yet, and I want to know what the problem could be?
Answer
Nausea and vomiting are often due to abdominal cold, consumption of cold foods, or bacterial infections in the intestines. Based on your description, it’s considered to be enteritis, and anti-inflammatory and antidiarrheal treatments can be adopted, such as taking norfloxacin orally. Generally, it is recommended to take oral medications such as cefradine and compound difenoxin, while also paying attention to abdominal warmth and increasing fluid intake. It’s also important to pay attention to the child’s diet in everyday life.
