Question
The one-year-old infant’s stool is grayish-white, has a strong odor, is watery, and occurs diarrhea 4 to 5 times a day, with the baby relatively calm. No treatment has been received. Inquire about the treatment method and what medication should be taken.
Answer
It should be noted that diarrhea may be caused by indigestion or dietary changes. It is recommended to ensure the infant gets plenty of rest, avoid eating spicy and irritating foods, as well as extremely cold and cool foods. At the same time, monitor the baby’s body temperature changes promptly, and consider taking probiotics and other medications for treatment. If necessary, visit a regular pediatric department of a hospital for detailed examinations, including stool routine checks and magnetic resonance imaging scans.
