Patient's question:
The baby has been having watery stools for 4 days, and the stool has now started to contain yellow color, but today they had a wet soil-colored stool (they ate Chinese medicine yesterday). A few days ago, due to insufficient breast milk, they were given many bottles of formula and drank fish soup and pork rib soup. A stool test showed fat droplets, and the doctor said the baby has poor digestion. They have used (belly button patches), taken Chinese medicine, and eaten Smecta and Xiesuteng granules.Previous treatment and effectiveness:
- No allergic reactions.
What kind of assistance is desired:
- Want the baby to stop diarrhea quickly.
Why did the stool turn soil-colored?
- Is it an adverse reaction to the medicine or is the medicine working?
Doctor's answer:
From your description, it seems that your child's condition may be related to digestive issues, which have led to abnormal bowel movements and subsequently nausea and vomiting.Recommendation: It is best to have your child's stool tested for routine examination to rule out the possibility of intestinal inflammation. Then, you can use medications that aid digestion and strengthen the stomach to help alleviate your child's nausea and vomiting as quickly as possible. I recommend using Ji Nei Jin San (Chicken Gizzard Powder), Jian Pi San (Spleen Strengthening Powder), and Mamiai. Additionally, you can apply Ding Gui Er Qi Piao (Ding Gui Er Qi Navel Patch) externally to the navel for better effectiveness.
