Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Could you please tell me what are the symptoms of indigestion in infants?Doctor's answer:
Hello, infant indigestion can manifest as decreased appetite, abdominal bloating, vomiting, changes in stool characteristics, such as loose stools, curdled milk, foam, undigested food residue, and foul odor, etc. Both injections and medication are effective, but it is essential to tailor the treatment to the baby's specific condition.For routine pediatric vaccinations, infants typically start receiving the hepatitis B vaccine and BCG shot at birth. By 2 months, they begin taking the polio oral vaccine. Therefore, at 9 months, both injections and medication are appropriate.
