Question

The child is 7 months old and still has diarrhea that has not healed yet. The gastrointestinal system seems weak. Can you suggest medication or other management methods?

Answer

First, a regular stool test should be conducted to confirm if it is a bacterial or viral infection, and then appropriate medication should be chosen for treatment based on the test results. Additionally, it is important to keep warm, avoid catching a cold, and avoid consuming cold, spicy, and other irritating foods. Abdominal cold compresses can be applied, and probiotic powder can be taken to help regulate gastrointestinal function. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you and your baby. Wishing you both good health!
