Some 5,000,000 children die from it annually. The most serious conditions that arise from diarrhea are dehydration and malnutrition. Dehydration means that the child does not have enough water left in his body. It happens when the body loses more liquid than it takes in. People of any age can become dehydrated. However, it develops more quickly and is most dangerous in small children. A dehydrated person has a dry mouth and tongue, sunken eyes, weight loss, absence of tears, etc.  \nToute diarrhée est dangereuse et peut mener à la mort de l’enfant si elle n’est pas traitée à temps. Environ 5.000.000 d’enfants meurent chaque année de ladiarrhée. Les conséquences les plus sérieuses de ladiarrhée sont la déshydratation et la malnutrition. Ladéshydratation signifie que l’enfant n’a plus assezd’eau dans le corps. Cela se passe lorsque le corps perd plus d’eau qu’il n’en reçoit. Des personnes de tous âges peuvent souffrir de déshydratation. Elle sedéveloppe cependant de façon plus dangereuse et plus rapide chez les enfants en bas âge. Une personnedéshydratée a la bouche et la langue sèche, les yeux enfoncés dans les orbites, elle perd du poids et n’a plus de larmes.  \nIf you give the child plenty to drink at home, you can prevent the diarrhea from becoming serious. Give the child liquids like rice water, guava leaf tea, the water that vegetables have been cooked in (carrots, huckleberry, greens), ORS packet, or even plain water. Avoid any food or drink which has grease or fat in it. If the child refuses to drink or vomits, stay patient and keep trying.  \nSi vous donnez beaucoup de liquide à votre enfant dèsl’apparition des premières selles liquides, vous pouvez empêcher que la diarrhée ne devienne dangereuse. Donnez à votre enfant des liquides tels que de l’eau deriz, des infusions de feuilles de goyave, l’eau dans laquelle vous avez cuit des végétaux (carottes, feuilles, etc.), des sachets SRO (sels de réhydratation orale) ou même de l’eau simple. Evitez toutenourriture ou boisson contenant des matières grasses. Si l’enfant refuse de boire, soyez patient et continuezà essayer de le faire boire. S’il vomit, attendez quelques minutes puis recommencez lentement, par petites cuillerées.","cbCaijiUK6ggoQjZ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijiUK6ggoQjZ","pdf",1079349,1,22,"English","en",105,"# Diarrhea risks\n## Dehydration and malnutrition\n# Treating diarrhea at home\n## What to give\n## What to avoid\n## If the child refuses to drink or vomits","[{\"question\":\"Why is diarrhea dangerous for children?\",\"answer\":\"Diarrhea can lead to death if not treated early.
