Patient's question:
My baby is now just four months old. First, there was a lot of gas, and the diaper had yellow, watery poop. I didn’t pay much attention at first, thinking it was because of breastfeeding. After five days, I noticed the poop was getting more watery day by day, and the baby wasn’t eating much and was crying intermittently. They also refuse to drink water. Today, the poop was green and watery.Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your consultation, it is still considered that the symptoms are caused by indigestion and poor absorption, and a stool routine test is needed. Childhood diarrhea refers to an increase in the frequency of bowel movements, an increase in fluid content, and the presence of abnormal components such as loose stools or blood, pus, or fat. It is often accompanied by bowel sounds and abdominal pain. Acute diarrhea refers to a course of less than 2 months. The main causes of diarrhea are rapid intestinal peristalsis, where water does not have enough time to be fully absorbed in the intestines, and excessive intestinal secretion, leading to digestive and absorption disorders.
