How to deal with diarrhea in a baby who is more than ten days old

Patient's question:

Can you wear diapers? Will wearing diapers make your baby's legs bent? What should I do if my baby still has eye discharge? What should I do if my baby gets red bumps on their face?

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Hello, considering the child is a newborn, you can use diapers.
Advice: Regarding the child's eye problem, it is likely conjunctivitis. It is recommended to use tobramycin eye drops for treatment. As for the red dots on the child's face, they may be due to amniotic fluid irritation during pregnancy. It is advised to wait and see and avoid scratching. If white heads appear, you can use iodine for disinfection.
There are many factors that can cause infant diarrhea. If the child is confirmed to have infant diarrhea, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for active treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits.
