A 1.5-year-old baby has been experiencing diarrhea for four or five days, with yellow, loose stools occurring about four to five times a day. Sometimes the frequency is high, sometimes low, and occasionally there’s a small amount of watery diarrhea. The child’s spirits are good, but there is some runny nose.

My son is five and a half months old and has been having three to four loose stools a day. For nearly a month, he has been taking probiotics without any effect. Lately, he has been passing green stool with foam. How should a doctor handle this situation?

Medications can cause gastrointestinal dysfunction, and it is recommended to use probiotics to adjust.
