Question

The baby returned after a week of intravenous infusion and keeps having diarrhea, up to 6-7 times a day. Before having a bowel movement, the stomach makes gurgling sounds, and then gas and stool come out together. It’s not very loose, resembling egg white in consistency.

Answer

Generally, this kind of situation may be somewhat related to the infusion administered a few days prior. The infusion may have damaged the probiotics in the intestines, leading to some indigestion. It could be non-infectious nausea and vomiting related to the medication’s coolness. I suggest you visit the hospital for a re-examination, have a routine stool test, and if it’s non-infectious, consider using traditional Chinese medicine or prepared Chinese medicine to nourish the gastrointestinal tract, such as Zhyabiao ZhiXie Granules, Montmorillonite Powder, etc.
