Causes and Treatment Methods of Green Stools

Infants may experience green stools due to reasons such as insufficient feeding, catching a cold, or rapid intestinal movement. If breastfed, as long as the baby’s milk intake is normal, mood is good, sleep is sound, and weight is increasing normally, no special treatment is generally required. For mixed feeding, it is important to ensure the baby eats enough. Catching a cold may also lead to rapid intestinal movement and green stools. If the baby only has green stools without other discomforts, the condition can usually be improved by enhancing abdominal warmth. Symptoms often disappear after a few days. However, if the baby has cold symptoms, it may require simultaneous treatment for the cold.
