Question

My daughter has been passing green stools with milk lumps that are rather sticky, occurring several times a day for the past twenty days. She has taken bifidobacterium triple-virulent capsules and yiyuqian invigorating jelly, but the symptoms have not improved and she occasionally has a high fever. What is going on, and what medicine should she take?

Answer

Hello: Based on your description, the child’s condition of having green stools with milk lumps followed by a sticky texture suggests that it may be caused by dyspepsia. Guidance: You can give her some Changle Kang, pepsin, and baby invigorating powder. Also, incorporate food therapy by reducing her milk intake and cooking some millet porridge. Drink the soup from it, but not the millet itself inside; it is both nutritious and fills the stomach. This should help her recover quickly. Wishing the baby a speedy recovery.
