Patient's question:
My child is 67 days old and has poor digestion. The hospital prescribed probiotics and protein yeast powder to be taken for a week. Previously, they had a bowel movement once a day, but now they have three bowel movements a day, and the stool is green. The child has been crying constantly. What could be the reason? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
The current condition of the child is considered to be a manifestation of digestive issues, which is generally related to the child's weak gastrointestinal function, exposure to cold, unclean diet or breastfeeding, etc. I don't know how long the child has been taking probiotics orally, but it is recommended to continue oral treatment while paying attention to the cleanliness of the child's feeding or diet. The mother should avoid spicy and irritating foods, and pay attention to keeping the child's abdomen warm. Additionally, gently massage the child's abdomen in a clockwise direction, centered around the navel.
