Question
Is vomiting and mucoid stools in children a possible symptom of autumn diarrhea?
Answer
It is recommended to examine the stool to determine whether it is due to indigestion or enteritis. Also, observe for any intestinal dysfunction caused by the common cold. For indigestion, oral medications such as Shanyao Jianpi Oral Liquid or Simeta are suggested. If symptoms are severe, seek medical attention promptly and consider intravenous treatment. Additionally, extend the intervals between breastfeeding to allow the gastrointestinal system to rest and increase fluid intake. If introducing complementary foods, temporarily stop or reduce the addition of new complementary foods until symptoms improve and then gradually resume. Especially avoid foods that are difficult to digest. If laboratory results show inflammation, anti-inflammatory treatment should be administered. If fever is present, fever-reducing treatment should be provided, and intravenous treatment may be necessary. At the same time, extend the intervals between breastfeeding to allow the gastrointestinal system to rest and increase fluid intake. Avoid eating foods that are difficult to digest.
