Question
What dietary precautions should be taken for a baby who has been occasionally passing green jelly-like stool?
Answer
The baby has been experiencing alternating green jelly-like and sticky yellow stools for several days, with no improvement despite medication. The stool test results are normal. Medications previously taken include Jinhuang Bao’er Wan, Xingpi Yang’er Granule, Compound Pepsin Powder, and probiotics. Currently, the baby also has jaundice, but how has the baby’s stool condition been since birth? Have there been any cases of nausea or vomiting? Green stool could be a sign of intestinal infection. It is suggested to administer pediatric amoxicillin granules, discontinue other medications, and add probiotics.
