Patient's question:
Each time I change the baby's diaper, there is a bit of poop. Sometimes it's all watery, and the poop is in pieces. It didn't help with Mamiaoi (a probiotic supplement), so is it an issue with breastfeeding? Or is it because the food I eat is too oily?Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons that can cause a baby to have diarrhea. It may be a symptom caused by poor digestion in the child, or it may be a symptom that manifests due to improper feeding. It may also be related to catching a cold. If the child experiences this again, it should be related to the mother's diet to some extent. Oral traditional Chinese medicine such as infant spleen-strengthening powder or lactase can be taken together for treatment, and it is important to prevent catching a cold.
