An 11-month-old baby has contracted viral gastroenteritis. How should the child be cared for and treated?
The frequency and texture of an infant’s bowel movements often reflect their digestive function.
Handling and Recommendations for Newborn Diarrhea
After a one-year-old baby vomits, it is recommended to give them Pudendan Oral Liquid and Chang Le Kang, along with Vitamin B6. If the child is unable to eat or if the vomiting persists, it is imperative to take them to the hospital for examination. The doctor may suggest intravenous treatment if necessary.
During the treatment of tonsillitis in children, it is recommended to follow a light diet, consume more vegetables and fruits to supplement vitamins and trace elements, enhance immunity, and promote recovery. When choosing fruits, avoid overly cold ones and opt for fruits with neutral properties, such as apples and kiwis. Daily meals should mainly consist of light, easy-to-digest, and easy-to-swallow foods, such as congee and noodles. It is also suggested to drink plenty of water and eat less or no mutton, dog meat, and other foods that may trigger inflammation. Additionally, avoid picky eating to prevent malnutrition that can affect resistance and lead to a recurrence of tonsillitis.

Baby constipation is often related to insufficient water intake, excessive milk consumption, and low intestinal function. It’s recommended to give the child more honey water and increase the intake of vegetable puree and fruit puree. In severe cases, use a glycerin suppository to relieve bowel difficulties, and consider giving symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication such as Qizhen Wan.
