Question

The baby often cries, with the stomach frequently emitting loud noises, has diarrhea, and sometimes even watery stools. Despite taking many medications, there is no improvement. How can I stop the baby from having diarrhea and abdominal discomfort?

Answer

Hello, gastrointestinal dysfunction caused by various reasons may lead to this constipation-like symptom. It is recommended to give the baby abdominal massage multiple times a day. If abdominal pain occurs, you can try using a navel patch or cold compress. At the same time, ensure the baby drinks plenty of water and keeps warm. If the baby is breastfed, the mother should also drink more water, exercise appropriately, eat more fruits and vegetables, and avoid spicy and other irritating foods. Wishing the baby a healthy growth.
