Question
What to Do for a Two-Month-Old Baby with Diarrhea?
Answer
The symptoms of diarrhea began on September 20th, and the laboratory results indicated pediatric diarrhea. Past treatments and effects showed improvement after taking medication for several days, but the diarrhea started again two days later. If there are bubbles in the stool, it usually indicates dyspepsia in children. When a child’s digestive system is problematic, an increase in food residue leads to fermentation of intestinal flora, producing gas that causes bubbles in the stool. Additionally, the presence of bubbles in the stool may also be related to the child crying for too long, swallowing too much air. If the child also has vomiting, with sour-smelling vomit or undigested milk clumps, or abdominal pain (when the baby is lying flat, the abdomen is lower than the chest), the stool may contain bubbles without mucus or pus, and the frequency of bowel movements may increase, but the nature of the stool remains yellow or slightly green pasty, or loose. This is indicative of dyspepsia.
