Question
The baby’s stool has been accompanied by mucus-like discharge for over two months, occurring about 3 to 4 times daily. We have visited several hospitals, but the treatment effects have been insignificant. Should we take symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication or gastrointestinal health medicine? The regular stool test results show normal.
Answer
The presence of mucus in stool is often a sign of enteritis and should be gradually nourished. Taking anti-inflammatory medication may be more effective, and it’s important to pay attention to diet. Since the gastrointestinal system of infants is still growing and developing, it is not yet fully mature. The above suggestions are hoping to help you. Wishing you and your baby good health!
