Question
How to handle a 3-month-old baby’s diarrhea caused by catching a cold?
Answer
A baby may develop diarrhea due to gastrointestinal dysfunction caused by catching a cold. Simply using pediatric umbilical cord plasters may not effectively treat this condition. It is recommended that parents take the baby to the hospital for a routine stool test to determine the type of diarrhea and then administer symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication for treatment.
