Patient's question:
Medical History: Mixed feeding, consuming Nestle, having one bowel movement per day. 10 days ago, I gave the baby rice cereal, and then started having diarrhea. The stool is green with mucus and curds. The baby has abdominal distension, poor sleep, is fussy, and has stopped drinking. The baby has 3-5 bowel movements per day, with small amounts of stool, and the burps also contain stool. There is a sound of intestines before each bowel movement. Stool tests were normal.Past Treatment and Effectiveness: The baby has taken Smecta, Memei Ai, pepsin, Bao Le An, and mide mycin, but none have been effective. Previously, diarrhea would always improve with Memei Ai, but this has never happened before. We have taken so many medications. Additionally, the baby frequently sneezes.
Help Needed: The vaccination schedule is due, but I don’t know if I can get the vaccine under these conditions. Should we continue taking medication?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, your baby's digestive system is still developing. Besides the normal yellow and soft stool, sometimes the stool may turn green and accompanied by curdled milk, which is also common. If your baby does not show any discomfort such as frequent vomiting, crying, abdominal colic, or bloating, there is no need for excessive worry. Just treat it accordingly. Oral montmorillonite and Mimi Ai are both suitable options, with minimal side effects.Hello, considering your child's condition, it is necessary to test the stool to determine if there is inflammation. I recommend testing the stool. If there is inflammation, you can take cefixime. If not, do not take antibiotics. Additionally, you can take Changle Kang and Simethicone together.
