Question
What are the symptoms of infant diarrhea and how should it be checked and treated?
Answer
Diarrhea can be caused by dietary changes or weather conditions, as well as infections. The manifestation of diarrhea differs in breastfed or formula-fed infants. Breastfed infants may have looser stools, which is normal, while formula-fed infants should have more formed stools. If an infant’s diarrhea becomes frequent suddenly, it may be a sign of health concern. Treatment can involve adjusting diet, using probiotics like Mami Love or Hengshengyuan to regulate the gastrointestinal tract. In some cases, short-term use of antibiotics may be necessary. If the diarrhea does not improve promptly, it is important to consult a doctor.
