Question
I’ve been having diarrhea since two months old, about seven to eight times a day. Now that I’m three months old, I’ve started taking probiotics. After three days, it didn’t improve and actually got worse, so I stopped taking them. I switched to baby spleen-strengthening san (digestive health powder) and have been taking it for about eight days now, along with the umbilical patch. The diarrhea stops at night, but it still happens six to seven times during the day.
Answer
Considering the baby’s condition, if the symptoms of diarrhea are due to indigestion, a routine stool test can be conducted to clarify. In such cases, it is recommended to take probiotics, bentonite powder, and kadodan granules for treatment. Additionally, use regional baby one-patch to treat the umbilical area symptomatically. If dehydration occurs, further oral rehydration salt solution or intravenous fluid therapy may be required.
