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 big poop. 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 the baby tested for a stool routine examination. Anti-inflammatory treatment can be administered, such as oral cefixime granules for suspension and Smecta. Drink plenty of 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 treatment and avoid using medication blindly to relieve 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 treatment for the disease.
