Question
What to Do If a Baby’s Stool Contains Red, Sticky Material?
Answer
It is recommended to check the baby’s stool for laboratory analysis to determine whether it is due to dyspepsia or enteritis. Attention should also be given to whether the condition is caused by intestinal dysfunction due to a cold. For dyspepsia, it is suggested to take symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication and maintain a healthy diet for the baby, avoiding difficult-to-digest foods. In severe cases, immediate medical attention and intravenous treatment should be sought.
