How to prevent diarrhea in children

Diarrhea is a common gastrointestinal disease in children, which will have a serious impact on their physical health. Children are relatively weak, and their stomachs are easily infected, so parents should pay attention to their children's physical health. Therefore, it is very important to prevent diarrhea in children in daily life. Here are some ways to recommend to you.

The first method: dietary prevention

In order to raise a healthy baby, mothers are advised to adhere to breastfeeding. Breast milk is a pure natural drink. Babies can obtain various substances from breast milk to resist intestinal infections and reduce the occurrence of diarrhea. For babies who are adding complementary foods, it is necessary to do it step by step: from less to more, from thin to thick, from fine to coarse. This can give the digestive system an adaptation process, avoid diarrhea, and ensure absorption.

The second method: cleaning and disinfection

Some pediatric diarrhea is caused by infection with bacteria, viruses, etc. These pathogens can enter the baby's body through food, tableware, and physical contact. Therefore, it is very important to maintain hygiene in the baby's living place and disinfect the items used. Before feeding the baby, you must wash your hands; the bottles, bowls, spoons, etc. used by infants and young children should be boiled and disinfected at least once a day, or scalded with boiling water before use; maintain good hygiene habits, bathe the baby frequently and change clean clothes. Only in a good hygienic environment can diarrhea be effectively prevented.

The third method: enhance resistance

Children are in the growth and development stage, and their resistance to the outside world is weak, so they are prone to diarrhea. Therefore, the most important way to prevent baby diarrhea is to enhance the baby's resistance. In addition to strengthening outdoor activities to improve the baby's ability to adapt to the natural environment and improve the body's resistance, it is also necessary to add vitamin supplements appropriately, which can help children improve their body's defense capabilities and significantly reduce the incidence of diarrhea. During the baby's diarrhea, fat-soluble vitamins such as cod liver oil will aggravate the baby's diarrhea. Therefore, at this time, you should choose water-soluble vitamin drops for your baby. Water-soluble vitamin drops can not only absorb the nutrients of vitamins well during the baby's diarrhea, but also will not aggravate diarrhea. Let the baby also supplement vitamins well during the sick stage, enhance the baby's physical strength, and resist viruses.

After the introduction above, I hope it can help parents in preventing diarrhea in children. For the health of children, in daily life, we must take various measures to prevent diarrhea in children, maintain good living habits and eating habits, and once the child is found to have diarrhea, we must take the child to a regular hospital pediatric department for diagnosis and treatment.
