Question
The 3-month-old baby had diarrhea four times in one morning, with the fourth instance containing streaks of blood and mucus. The baby has already taken probiotics and is asking for solutions. The baby is in good spirits, not crying or fussy, and can be amused.
Answer
Based on the course of the illness, the baby’s diarrhea issue may be related to an incomplete recovery of absorption functions. Although the baby is not vomiting at the moment, it is recommended to wait until the intestines are fully recovered before resuming the intake of grape calcium iron zinc, as it may have intestinal side effects. The baby is currently sleeping well, in good spirits, not vomiting or experiencing abdominal pain, so medication may not be needed temporarily. The situation should naturally improve in a few days. During this period, attention should be paid to keeping warm.
