Question

My baby had diarrhea three times today, and their stomach makes a rumbling sound. I don’t know what the cause is.

Answer

Various reasons can cause gastrointestinal dysfunction, leading to this dyspeptic symptom in babies. For this condition, treatment can be administered with MamiAi. However, it’s generally recommended not to exceed half a month of continuous use and then to take a break from it, using medications likeJianpi San (Yi Pan San) or Si Mo Tang instead. Additionally, it’s important to consistently massage the baby’s abdomen multiple times a day; if there’s abdominal distension, a belly patch or heat compress can be applied. The baby should also drink plenty of water, engage in moderate exercise, eat more fruits and vegetables, and get adequate sunlight exposure. Wishing the baby a healthy growth!
