Question

My daughter is already five months old and has been having diarrhea. Why hasn’t it improved? What are the effects of long-term vomiting on a baby? What kind of nutrition does a 5-month-old baby need?

Answer

Dear inquirer, hello. There are many causes of vomiting, usually gastrointestinal inflammation, dyspepsia, or stomach cold. If the cause is confirmed to be due to cold, you can use a belly button patch appropriately to keep the gastrointestinal tract warm, and the condition will improve. However, if the cause cannot be confirmed, it is best to take the child to the hospital for a routine stool examination to identify the cause and provide targeted treatment for better results.
