A. you will have to give ors for every episode of loose motion. you you cannot give heavy diet like milk to the child for few days as well as you cannot give sugar based food. you cannot give packet based foods as well as biscuit maida. kindly give curd buttermilk apple banana poha upma daliya. you can also give any recipe made from rice dal as well as sabudana xkhichdi. you cannot give outside juice as well as glucon d to the child. please meet your doctor because if it is viral or bacterial diarrhea will bex confirmed only on examination. give sachet econorm twice daily for 3days. meet your doctor if it is not improving

A. If your toddler is suffering from loose motions (diarrhea), it's generally not recommended to give ghee or any other fatty foods until their stomach settles down. Ghee is rich in fat and can be difficult to digest, which may aggravate diarrhea or contribute to further discomfort. During episodes of loose motions, it's important to focus on rehydration and providing easily digestible foods. You can offer small, frequent sips of oral rehydration solutions (ORS) to prevent dehydration. Additionally, you can give your toddler bland foods like rice, boiled potatoes, bananas, and mild soups or broths. These foods are gentle on the stomach and can help firm up stools. If your toddler's diarrhea persists for more than a day or is accompanied by other concerning symptoms such as fever, vomiting, or signs of dehydration, it's crucial to consult a pediatrician for proper evaluation and treatment. The pediatrician can provide specific guidance on managing your toddler's condition and advise on when it's safe to reintroduce ghee or other foods into their diet.
