Sometimes babies may experience bloating and diarrhea, which may be due to intestinal infection. Intestinal infections are also a common occurrence in babies, sometimes due to bacterial infections, and sometimes due to viral infections. What should I do if my baby has an intestinal infection?
There are also several types of intestinal infections in babies, such as bacterial infections, viral infections, and parasitic infections. Different infections require different treatment methods. If it is a bacterial infection, antibiotics can be used for treatment. If it is a viral infection, the cause should be identified and treated accordingly. Therefore, when a baby develops intestinal infections, the first step is to identify the cause of the disease, whether it is caused by a virus or bacteria, in order to receive targeted treatment.
The symptoms of a baby's intestinal infection include bloating, diarrhea, and the color of the stool is green and relatively viscous. When a baby develops an intestinal infection, it is important to adjust their diet and reduce the burden on their intestines.
If a baby develops intestinal infection, it is self limiting if it is a viral infection. The course of the disease usually lasts about a week, and with appropriate treatment, it will recover in about seven to ten days. If it is a bacterial infection, the severity of the condition and the course of the disease are different, and effective anti infective treatment and supportive symptomatic treatment must be carried out for such infections.
