If there are milk curds, it may indicate digestive problems, and it is advisable to add Yigan San (a pediatric digestive powder) to the child’s regimen. Usually, as the child starts on solid foods, physiological diarrhea will ease. If formula milk is being fed, consider switching to a different brand of formula to reduce nausea and vomiting.
