Patient's question:
The baby's bowel movements have not been good for a long time. The doctor prescribed probiotics, which the baby has been taking, but the effect is not significant. The baby only has a very small amount of stool per day. This afternoon, the baby's stomach started to feel a bit bloated. After a while, the baby began to cry uncontrollably. The crying lasted for a long time and was extremely painful. The baby's throat was even hoarse from crying. It just calmed down a moment ago. Is there any novel and quick method? Thank you very much.Doctor's answer:
If the child experiences this situation again, it is likely that there is a possibility of gastrointestinal dysfunction. It could also be caused by poor digestion.Recommendations:
1. You can use infant suppositories to help the child have a bowel movement.
2. You can use Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, pepsin oral solution, etc., to aid digestion. Probiotics and other probiotic preparations can also be tried.
3. You can gently massage the abdomen in a clockwise direction around the navel to promote intestinal peristalsis and aid in defecation.
4. Probiotics and other probiotic preparations can help balance the intestinal flora, but they should not be used long-term.
5. If necessary, you can use Siquan oral solution or pediatric-specific Domperidone preparations for treatment.
