Question
How should one handle a three-month-old baby’s diarrhea issue?
Answer
Diarrhea can be categorized into infectious and non-infectious types, a clinical syndrome caused by various pathogens and factors. It is recommended to conduct a routine stool examination to determine the cause and treat accordingly to prevent dehydration from worsening the condition. If the baby is breastfed, it may be due to lactose intolerance, and the mother should be cautious about her diet, avoiding cold, spicy, irritating, or overly fatty foods. At the same time, it is important to keep the baby’s abdomen warm and prevent them from catching a cold.
