What is the reason for the redness in the baby's stool?

Patient's question:

Today the baby is 29 days old, and there's a bit of red in the stool. What could be the reason? The baby is eating well, in good spirits, and not crying or fussing.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, it is likely to be caused by enteritis. You can have your baby tested for a stool routine examination. Anti-inflammatory treatment can be administered, such as oral cefixime granules for suspension and Smecta. Drink more water and recover gradually. Additionally, maintain hygiene in the anal area by rinsing with warm water to avoid the occurrence of eczema. The child is affected by neonatal diseases, so parents must take the child to a doctor for timely medical treatment and avoid using blind medication to alleviate symptoms. For parents, it is essential to provide the child with enough care and attention, and to do everything possible to help the child receive timely medical treatment for the disease.
