Question
Will there be errors in the test result of a newborn’s stool in the diaper after 40 minutes? The newborn is 27 days old and has been for a week. There are occasional Jet-like stools with water, with 7-8 bowel movements during the day. The test result shows white blood cells and occasionally red blood cells.
Answer
Even with the influence, it won’t cause the child’s stool to appear with white blood cells and red blood cells, so the child’s stool still has a problem, and the child has some inflammation. The child needs to take some medication, such as cefixime for anti-infection, and use Montmorillonite powder and probiotics for treatment. Probiotics can be Mommy Love or Boraan. Pay attention to the child’s buttocks; with this many bowel movements, it is easy to cause diaper rash. If it occurs, use red mold ointment for treatment and make sure to clean the buttocks immediately after bowel movements. Wishing the child a quick recovery.
