Patient's question:
Baby is 45 days old. The first 30 days were mixed feeding, and the stool was watery and dark green. Additionally, there are many small red rashes on the face and body, with yellow heads that form yellow crusts after a few days. The baby is doing well mentally.Treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment has been administered, only tea oil has been applied daily.
What help is needed: Please help determine what is wrong with the baby. Is it related to the formula? Thank you very much!
Doctor's answer:
The baby's green stool is likely caused by catching a cold or the mother consuming poorly digestible foods. Initial diagnosis suggests indigestion. It's important to keep the baby warm and prevent chills. The mother should focus on a light diet and avoid extremely cold, hard, and poorly digestible foods. You can also gently massage around the navel in a clockwise direction. Massaging in a clockwise direction helps stimulate intestinal movement and improves absorption. Additionally, offer the baby warm water to promote internal circulation.
