Why is the baby lactose intolerant

Patient's question:

My baby is a premature child, and I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has appeared with this series of conditions, and I am also very worried, afraid that the child will become worse. Why is lactose intolerance in infants?

Doctor's answer:

Lactose intolerance refers to a phenomenon where some people, due to a lack of lactase in their bodies, cannot absorb lactose well, and may even experience symptoms such as bloating, abdominal pain, and nausea after consuming lactose. It is caused by a genetic disorder, and generally, there are preventive methods and treatments available. These include increasing nutritional supplements, taking vitamins and trace elements, maintaining a balanced diet with proper food combinations, using traditional Chinese medicine for regulation, and keeping a healthy lifestyle.
