Question
The 14-month-old baby has been eating very little recently, feeling no appetite. Today, while playing, the baby had a bit of loose yellow stool. When held, the baby didn’t want to go to the bathroom. Is it due to poor digestion or what?
Answer
I’m glad to help clarify your concerns. Based on your description, it seems likely that the baby’s symptoms are related to poor digestion. It’s advisable to first take the baby to the hospital for a detailed routine stool examination. Oral lactase enzyme supplements and probiotics can be taken for digestion. If necessary, consult with a doctor for a follow-up visit.
