Question

An eight-month-old baby first experienced vomiting, and after receiving intravenous treatment, started to have watery egg flower-shaped diarrhea, lasting for two days. The parents inquire about the cause and whether there is any effective medicine.

Answer

An eight-month-old baby who vomits and then has watery egg flower-shaped diarrhea may be due to acute gastritis or indigestion. It is recommended to first conduct a stool test for diagnosis and to take medication based on the test results. If diagnosed with acute gastritis, treatment with Cefradine and Montmorillonite powder can be effective. At the same time, parents should pay attention to keeping the baby warm, avoiding cold, and ensuring the baby drinks plenty of water to replenish fluids.
