Question

What should be done if a 6-month-old baby has diarrhea during breastfeeding?

Answer

For diarrhea caused by infant digestive discomfort, oral administration of pediatric complex pancreatin powder and Biqui is recommended, with a one-hour interval between the two medications. If it is enteritis, additional pediatric Lishou should be taken. At the same time, apply Dinggui Er umbilical cord plaster using a belly button plaster, and ensure abdominal warmth. Offer plenty of water to prevent dehydration. It is suggested to further check the stool routine to determine the cause.
