Question
What’s causing my baby’s white, transparent stool and nasal mucus? We haven’t been to the hospital. Previous treatment and results: None. What kind of help do I need? I want to know what’s happening and how serious it is. What kind of treatment is needed?
Answer
Based on your description, I speculate that your baby might be suffering from acute enteritis accompanied by indigestion, often related to catching a cold, overeating, and other factors. Guidance: It is suggested that repeated nausea and vomiting can lead to dehydration, so intravenous medication is necessary in such cases. Treatment should follow the principles for pediatric diarrhea, with fluid replacement according to the degree of dehydration, appropriate oral administration of Simethicone for diarrhea relief, and a recheck of electrolytes, with attention to electrolyte digestion.
