Question
A 20-month-old baby has had diarrhea about twice a day, with stools having a rare, sour smell, containing undigested food, and being sticky in consistency. This has been going on for four days! The baby has taken spleen-strengthening san and Golden Bifidus but there has been no effect. What could be the matter?
Answer
You should give the child a clockwise massage on the abdomen. If there is bloating, it is recommended to use regional fennel to relieve gas. First, consider digestive issues. It is suggested to monitor the child’s body temperature and administer probiotics to regulate the intestinal flora. Complement this with edible spleen granules to enhance spleen and stomach function. If the symptoms persist without relief, routine stool tests should be conducted. Follow-up: Has there been any intestinal inflammation within the past four days, and is the child’s appetite and spirits recovering normally?
