When a child experiences symptoms of diarrhea in their daily life, parents should pay attention. It may be due to a lack of healthy diet for the child, or a failure to take good care of the child's daily life, resulting in the child catching a cold and experiencing diarrhea. At this time, the child may also experience recurrent diarrhea. What should I do if my child has recurrent diarrhea?
When children have repeated diarrhea, they must pay attention to their diet. Because their intestines and stomach are weak, they cannot eat some food that is difficult to digest, especially the food that is too cold, too spicy, and too greasy, which will lead to frequent diarrhea symptoms. In terms of diet, they should focus on light food, eat more white porridge, and add some salt when drinking white porridge. However, they should pay attention not to put meat when drinking Congee, otherwise children will also suffer from indigestion. When diarrhea occurs, they should focus on white porridge within 2 to 3 days, so that the symptoms can be alleviated.
When a child repeatedly experiences diarrhea, in addition to eating light foods, fruits can also be used as an auxiliary treatment. During diarrhea, only apples and pomegranates can be eaten, and some bananas, watermelons, and pears should not be touched. When diarrhea occurs, cut the apples into small pieces and boil them in water until warm before consumption. Note that cooked apples should not be seasoned with white sugar, as white sugar can also worsen diarrhea.
When a child repeatedly experiences diarrhea, it is important to seek medical treatment promptly. The doctor should prescribe some anti diarrhea medication based on the child's condition. After the child has taken the medication, it is also important to monitor their movements and encourage them to drink more water to avoid dehydration.
