Patient's question:
Currently, the baby has slightly yellow hair, doesn't like to drink water, and doesn't enjoy complementary foods. Formula is also only consumed during half-sleep. There has been a persistent breakage and occasional swelling at the connection between the ear and eyelid. Previously, the baby had eczema, and sleep quality has not been good in the second half of the night. The baby is currently drinking Mead Johnson formula, and bowel movements have been good. Is the eczema near the ear? What are some good non-hormonal medications? Should the formula be changed? Should it be stage 2 or stage 3?Doctor's answer:
Baby pickiness is caused by gastrointestinal and systemic diseases or drug reactions. It is common to give children digestive probiotics, as Lactobacillus casei can form a protective barrier on the intestinal mucosa. It is appropriate to take the child outdoors for activities and ensure adequate zinc intake. Since the baby is formula-fed and has normal bowel movements, it proves that the formula is still suitable. If the baby's eczema is not severe, there is no need to worry too much. Every baby goes through this stage, so attention should be paid to skin care.
