Question
A 4-month-old baby has been suffering from intermittent diarrhea for a month. Could a baby with diarrhea have colitis?
Answer
If medication is not administered appropriately, the presence of blood indicates colitis, which is an abnormal condition. It is recommended to change the child’s medication first or to have the child undergo a stool test, as this is not primarily related to diet. If you are unwilling to undergo a test, you could consider giving the child Intestine-Supporting Tablets, one tablet per dose, which is also effective. It is suggested to give the child a few doses.
