Question

My daughter is two months old and has colitis. Although she has improved after treatment, the condition recurs. How should I handle it?

Answer

Adjusting the diet is crucial in treating recurring infant colitis. Based on laboratory results, you can adjust dairy products or add new items to address issues with the digestion of fats, sugars, or proteins. For older infants, you can appropriately reduce dairy intake and increase the consumption of fluids, vegetables, and fruits. Additionally, maintaining adequate fluid intake helps prevent constipation and rectal bleeding. It is recommended to consult with a doctor to obtain personalized dietary advice.
