Question

If a two-month-old child has diarrhea 5-6 times a day, sometimes with frothy stools and sometimes with flatulence, can the child take Monkey Ear Ring granules and Lactobacillus acidophilus powder together?

Answer

A child with frequent diarrhea may be experiencing indigestion or catching a cold. It’s advised to avoid self-medication and consider giving the child probiotics to regulate the intestines, drink plenty of water, and ensure warmth. Breastfeeding mothers should avoid spicy, stimulating, or cold foods and adjust their diet appropriately. It’s suggested to consume astringent foods, avoid greasy foods, and reduce the baby’s intake of difficult-to-digest foods.
