Question

A 9-month-old baby has gastroenteritis and continues to have loose, watery stools after drinking milk. Can the baby still be breastfed?

Answer

If a baby is suffering from indigestion, it is recommended to give the baby a health-promoting powder and drink diluted salt water. Apply calamine lotion externally. Avoid eating extremely cold or cool foods, drink plenty of hot water, and use a hot water bottle for warm compresses at the navel. After two days of treatment, symptoms should subside.
