How long can a newborn hold their urine and stool?

Patient's question:

The child just born doesn't know what's wrong, there are always red spots on their body, and they are spitting up milk. How long can a newborn hold their urine and stool?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the physiological curvature of a newborn baby's spine has not yet developed properly; early toilet training can affect the formation of the physiological curvature of the spine. It's better to wait until they are 4 months old. Your condition may be blepharitis. Blepharitis can be caused by bacteria, seborrheic dermatitis, or local allergic reactions, and these conditions often coexist. It leads to subacute or chronic inflammation of the eyelid margin, eyelashes, hair follicles, and their glands. Some traditional Chinese medicine formulas that promote lung function, clear heat, and dispel wind can be used to treat it.
