Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. By the way, is it normal for breastfed babies to have a bowel movement once every 3-4 days?Doctor's answer:
Currently, such cases are generally considered to be caused by poor gastrointestinal motility or intestinal flora imbalance in the baby. Oral administration of Hansen's Four Grind Decoction or Lizhu Intestinal Comfort Capsules can help alleviate the symptoms. Applying warm compresses to the abdomen is beneficial. For premature infants, the duration is prolonged, with only mild appetite loss and no other clinical symptoms. If jaundice appears within 24 hours after birth and persists for 2 to 3 weeks without subsiding, or if it worsens after initially fading, or if it reappears after fading, or if it does not appear until one week to several weeks after birth, it is considered pathological jaundice.
