Question
A newborn baby of 28 days old has been suffering from diarrhea since birth, more than 10 times a day. Medications like probiotics and spleen-warming granules have been taken, but there has been no improvement. The stool has also been tested and found to be normal. How should this be handled?
Answer
Based on the situation, probiotics and montmorillonite powder can be administered for symptomatic treatment. It is recommended to take these two medications separately, with a gap of one hour between them, and then observe if the symptoms are relieved. If the symptoms do not improve, it is advisable to consult a doctor.
