What are the reasons for a baby having mushy poop?

Patient's question:

The baby is 18 months old. This morning, they had one bowel movement, and in the evening, they had another. In the morning, the stool was yellow and pasty, and in the evening, it turned green and was also pasty, but it had a sour smell! I gave them a bag of cefixime and drank some Chen Qu Mai Ya Shanzha water.

Doctor's answer:

Based on your condition, the current frequency of bowel movements indicates that they are normal, slightly loose. It is recommended to take probiotics to regulate the gut flora. Pay attention to a proper diet, avoid spicy and cold foods, and take care to prevent colds and chills. Taking probiotics to adjust the gut flora can be helpful. Cold compresses or moxibustion on points such as Shenque (CV8) and Zhongwan (CV12) can also be applied, along with attention to preventing chills.
