Due to the delicate digestive system and underdeveloped digestive system of infants and young children, they often experience diarrhea and other symptoms. Some children may even have diarrhea that persists for a long time without any signs of improvement, causing great concern among parents and friends. So, what should we do if a baby has diarrhea for over a month?
If a child has diarrhea for a long time, it is best to seek medical attention as soon as possible, otherwise long-term diarrhea can lead to more other diseases, seriously affecting the child's physical health. In general, when a child has long-term diarrhea, the first thing to consider is whether the child is allergic to things or has lactose intolerance. You can take the child to check for allergens and do lactose tolerance tests.
In addition, some diseases can also lead to long-term diarrhea, so parents still need to take their children to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible. During the period of diarrhea, it is necessary to pay attention to replenishing water for the child to prevent dehydration caused by long-term diarrhea. It is also important to supplement nutrition for the child to increase their physical burden and affect their health.
It should be noted that many parents may think that their children are too young and taking medication may harm their physical health. Therefore, if their children get sick, most of them will choose methods such as food conditioning. However, this is actually incorrect. If the child's symptoms are not severe, they can be temporarily observed, but if the condition is severe, it is still recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
