Question
A nine-month-old baby has been suffering from persistent diarrhea since the 26th. The hospital diagnosed it as indigestion. Recently, the parents have given the baby probiotics and tonifying the spleen powder, and the symptoms have somewhat eased. However, after the baby consumes formula milk, the stool becomes loose again. The parents are anxious about this and hope to receive further guidance.
Answer
Indigestion often comes with smelly, foamy stool with white lumps or sometimes yellow liquid. Infants’ gastrointestinal systems are more fragile, and symptoms of indigestion may persist for a longer time. In the absence of infectious inflammation, it is advisable to avoid using antibiotics or undergoing intravenous treatment. If the baby’s diarrhea is severe, simply using probiotics like MamiAi may be ineffective. It is recommended that parents consider adjusting the formula milk formula or seeking other suitable nutritional supplement options under the guidance of a doctor.
