Question

If a newborn has more than five bowel movements a day and contains milk residue, what could be the cause and how to solve it?

Answer

Based on the description, frequent bowel movements with milk residue in newborns may be due to dyspepsia. It is suggested to have a routine stool examination at the hospital and consider taking probiotics and bifidobacteria to regulate the gut flora. If severe vomiting occurs, consider using montmorillonite powder for diarrhea control.
