What should I do if my baby has diarrhea after having a fever and enema?

Nowadays, many children are always taken to the hospital for examination when they are sick with a fever. Sometimes, if we don’t want the children to take medicine or injections, we choose to give them enema. Enema is to absorb the medicine through the intestine and introduce the medicine into the intestine through the anus. Many children often have diarrhea after enema because their gastrointestinal tract is not fully developed. What should we do if our baby has diarrhea after enema when he has a fever? Let’s learn more about it!

This is a normal phenomenon. It is caused by the intestinal irritation after enema. It is recommended not to worry about it. Just make sure your child drinks more sugar and salt water, and make sure the water and electrolyte are not disordered. Parents should ensure that their babies are fed water regularly and dehydration is detected early. When the baby has severe diarrhea accompanied by vomiting, fever, thirst, dry lips, little or no urine, sunken eye sockets and anterior fontanelle, the baby becomes "thin" in a short period of time, the skin becomes "wilted", and the baby cries without tears, this indicates that dehydration has occurred and the sick child should be sent to the hospital for treatment in time.

Diarrhea can be stopped by food

1. To make the scorched rice soup, grind the rice flour or milk cake into powder, fry until it turns yellow, then add appropriate amount of water and sugar, and then cook it into a paste. When rice flour is added with water and then heated, it becomes dextrin. Dextrin is easily digestible, and its carbonized structure has a good adsorption and antidiarrheal effect.

2. Carrot soup Carrot is an alkaline food. The pectin it contains can promote stool formation and absorb bacteria and toxins on the intestinal mucosa. It is a good antidiarrheal food. The preparation method is: wash the carrots, cut them in half, remove the stems, then cut them into small pieces, add water and boil them until they are soft, then filter out the residue with gauze, and finally add water (500 grams of carrots to 1000 grams of water) and sugar and bring to a boil.

Now we know what to do if the baby has diarrhea after enema when he has a fever. In the future, we can use the above method to solve the problem of diarrhea in children. Maybe the child is not suitable for enema, or the child may be too young. In any case, we must treat the baby well and make sure that the baby does not become dehydrated. We must go to the hospital for examination in time.
