Question
My baby is 18 months old and today when I wiped her nose, I found that there was blood in the mucus. Is this a sign of being overheated? Lately, her stool has been dry, and she used a rectal thermometer yesterday. She hasn’t had a bowel movement for three days, usually once a day. Is this because of stomach upset? Are there any quick fire-relieving products like Qing Qing Bao available? She doesn’t like to drink much.
Answer
Based on your description, a 2-year-old female patient may be experiencing this condition due to dry indoor air. It is recommended to have your baby drink more water, maintain indoor humidity, and offer fruit purees. For constipation symptoms, you can administer probiotics appropriately to relieve the condition. I hope these suggestions can help you, and wish your baby good health!
