Question

A 6-month-old baby is experiencing diarrhea with stools resembling egg white water and a large amount of curdled milk. The symptoms have persisted for 5 to 6 days. Previous treatments included taking Mommy Love, but the effect was not significant. Ask if there are any rapid treatment methods.

Answer

Diarrhea in a 6-month-old baby can be caused by viruses, bacteria, or other factors leading to enteritis. Treatment may include antiviral medications, antibiotics, and symptomatic treatment such as rehydration and antidiarrheal measures. In severe cases, intravenous fluids may be necessary. It’s also important to monitor the baby’s temperature and changes to prevent dehydration and other complications.
