Patient's question:
Baby had diarrhea a few months ago, went to the hospital for a stool test, and it was diagnosed as digestive disorder diarrhea. They prescribed some medicine, including Montmorillonite Powder and Ribavirin Granules. After taking it for two days, now the baby has dark green bowel movements. Why is that? A week ago, the baby had 7 bowel movements a day, now it's 4 times a day. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
Diarrhea in children is generally related to viral or bacterial infections, rapid changes in climate, and significant temperature differences. Exposure to cold can increase intestinal peristalsis. It is recommended to conduct a further detailed examination of the stool routine. If it is indigestion, probiotics and Jianwei Xiaoshi tablets can be taken orally. The two medications should be taken with at least one hour between them. Additionally, attention should be paid to the baby's utensils to ensure hygiene, preferably daily high-temperature sterilization. It is important to prevent the abdomen from getting cold during daily activities to avoid catching a cold.
