Question
What are the causes of baby diarrhea? Newborn babies often suffer from diarrhea, and if you don’t feed them anything randomly, what should you do?
Answer
It may be due to the incomplete development of the child’s physiological functions, which makes them prone to infections and gastrointestinal dysfunction. Additionally, they are susceptible to rickets and malnutrition, which can lead to prolonged diarrhea. This can be primarily caused by infections, with the gastrointestinal infection being a major factor. Viruses and bacteria can infect through food, respiratory routes, or water sources. Gastrointestinal infections can also occur when organs or tissues outside the gastrointestinal tract are infected. Long-term and large-scale use of broad-spectrum antibiotics can lead to gastrointestinal flora imbalance, causing drug-induced diarrhea. It’s still advisable to have the baby examined by a doctor.
