It's Diarrhoea season again! Diarrhoea in children is the second leading cause of death worldwide. It is both preventable with good hygiene practices and treatable with prompt recognition, early health seeking behaviour and adequate hydration. Diarrhoea is the passage of 3 or more loose stools per day or one voluminous loose stool. Causes of diarrhoea may be due to an infection, allergic or antibiotics to name a few. Danger signs include irritability, extreme thirst or inability to drink fluids, poorly breastfeeding, sunken eyes, crying without tears, dry mouth, loose skin, sunken or depressed anterior fontanelle, unconsciousness and reduced and dark urine (less nappy or diaper changes for urine), blood in stool, swollen abdomen, vomiting and loss of weight, especially when diarrhoea is prolonged. The main pillars of treatment are hydration to replace fluids and electrolytes lost; and Zinc sulphate to help with gut surface healing. Antibiotics may be prescribed if an infectious agent has been identified. If your child has diarrhoea, please seek health care services early!
