Patient's question:
My baby is 19 months old, and her stool has always contained mucus. I often see undigested food in it, and it smells sour and foul.1. Is her indigestion related to poor appetite or food intake?
2. What kind of medication would be best for her?
3. Does my baby have any gastrointestinal issues?
I sincerely request your advice from the doctor. Thank you!
Doctor's answer:
Take carrot soup, 2 to 3 times a day, 2 to 3 tablespoons each time; take apple puree (take one apple, wash, peel, and core it, cut it into small pieces, put it in a bowl, add a small amount of sugar, steam it over boiling water, and after it is steamed, mash it into a puree to consume). Because carrots and apples contain pectin, they can help form stool and also absorb harmful substances in the intestines, aiding in the treatment of diarrhea.
