Question
The child often cries incessantly, with stools appearing yellowish-brown, containing milk curds and foam, diarrhea, short sleep duration, a white tongue coating, frequent flailing of the limbs, and crying out in sleep that is frightening. No previous treatment has been received.
Answer
This could potentially be due to stomach cold or digestive issues. There is no need to worry excessively. It is recommended to have a stool check at the hospital to treat the condition appropriately. If it’s a digestive problem, consider taking oral spleen tonic or Simeda。If the condition does not improve, intravenous fluid therapy may be recommended to prevent the situation from worsening. Additionally, extending the interval between feedings can allow the stomach and intestines to rest, and it is advisable to drink more water while avoiding foods that are difficult to digest.
