Question
A two-week-old infant has bowel movements three to four times a day, presenting in a thin consistency with many granular particles. Could this be related to the digestive system? The infant is not getting enough breast milk, so some formula milk and water have been added. Is this feeding method causing dyspepsia?
Answer
Hello, the baby’s symptoms indicate dyspepsia, possibly due to indigestion. There is no need to worry if there is no fever. Treatment methods include taking chicken gizzard powder or lactase preparations, among other medications.
