Question

Doctor, hello. The child in my relative’s family is spitting up milk while drinking, what could this be a problem?

Answer

For babies who consume formula milk, long-term use of the formula can easily lead to a “fire” condition in the child. The main symptoms of this condition are dry and painful stools. Therefore, when the child exhibits this situation, the following precautions should be taken:

  1. Add some fresh vegetables and fruits to the diet of babies over 6 months old while they are drinking formula milk.
  2. Encourage the child to drink more water, as ample hydration can help soften the stools. By taking these measures, the issue of the child experiencing a “fire” condition from drinking formula milk can be alleviated.
