Question
The baby has a bowel movement only about once every three days, and the stool is slightly green. For a month, the milk intake has been reduced by half…The baby often cries out suddenly while sleeping. Sometimes, even when held, the baby cries out suddenly, as if the buttocks are very painful…Seen by doctors many times…Medications taken include: Babysan Jing Feng San, Pearl Powder, Probiotics, Triple Bacteria, and Pepsin…It seems that none of them have had a significant effect. Hope for some help.
Answer
It is recommended to carefully check the stool for analysis to determine if it is infantile indigestion or enteritis. Also, be aware of whether intestinal dysfunction is caused by a cold. If it is indigestion, it is suggested to take oral Shanyao Jianpi Oral Liquid and Montmorillonite Powder, among others. In severe cases, consult a doctor for intravenous treatment. Shorten the interval between feedings to let the gastrointestinal tract rest. Offer more water. If providing complementary foods should be paused, or increase the provision of complementary foods. Resume gradually after improvement. Especially do not eat indigestible foods.
