The child is breastfed, and two days before the diarrhea started, the mother ate a banana and the child drank a bottle of mineral water. Asking whether this is related and whether medical attention is needed.

This is a sign of dyspepsia. You can use Simethicone combined with external Dinggui Er umbilical cord plasters for treatment, which tends to be effective.
