Question
My baby is 9 months and a few months old. This week, he hasn’t eaten much. Then a few days ago, I steamed some pears for him to eat, and after massaging his abdomen at night, he started to have diarrhea. His usual bowel movements are once a day. Lately, I’ve been massaging his abdomen more often. Today, he had some cold milk and diarrhea followed. This kind of stool with blood streaks is very distressing.
Answer
Considering that your baby’s abdominal cold has led to a recurrence of indigestion symptoms, probiotics and Wensui Yang’er Granules can be used for treatment. Observe the effect carefully. Blood in the stool usually indicates damage to the rectal mucosa, which should completely recover after symptoms of nausea and vomiting disappear. In daily life, always be mindful of abdominal warmth and prevent coldness, as well as avoiding cold and raw foods in the diet.
