Question

A one-and-a-half-year-old child experiences diarrhea one to two times a day, with stools that are loose or watery and have an unpleasant odor. Occasionally, the child has uncontrollable bowel movements. Every morning, there is a constant rumbling sound in their stomach. They may either vomit or have diarrhea, and the stomach rumbling stops after vomiting or diarrhea. The smell of both vomiting and diarrhea is similar. The child drinks water and sleeps soundly, showing good spirits during the day, with normal appetite and food intake. There is no fever. This condition has persisted for three to four days without a clear cause, occurring suddenly. The child has previously used products like Mommy Love and Simida, as well as a Dinggui Er belly button plaster. Only last night did the child not vomit, but had diarrhea, which was very loose and did not form a solid mass. Attempts were made to give the child a stomach-soothing oral liquid, but they refused to drink it, possibly due to a dislike for the taste. Assistance sought: There have been similar occurrences before, but they were resolved with medication. This time, the duration is a bit longer, and there is concern for the child’s endurance if this continues! Asking doctors for advice on how to self-heal or alleviate the symptoms!
