Question

Newborns always have diarrhea, and there is some redness and even cracking around the anus. How should I treat newborns who always have diarrhea?

Answer

Newborn babies have delicate skin and frequent bowel movements. Stimulation from stool can easily lead to redness and even cracked skin around the anal area. It is recommended to nourish the baby’s intestines to eliminate the root cause. Additionally, the effectiveness of red mold ointment may not be good, and other options should be tried. For parents, it is important to help children treat diseases promptly, and also pay attention to a balanced diet for the baby’s daily meals, avoiding excessive supplementation and malnutrition.
