Patient's question:
A baby born over twenty days ago developed a rash on their buttocks due to frequent bowel movements, so today we stopped breastfeeding and switched entirely to formula. In the morning, they had one bowel movement, in the afternoon, one more, and in the evening, they had two bowel movements within two hours, with each being quite large. In the morning, the stool was yellow and dry, but in the evening, it was like the picture shows. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described above, the main symptom is still an increase in bowel movements. It is recommended to take some probiotics, as they are effective and have no side effects. You can also get a routine stool test done to determine whether it is intestinal inflammation or indigestion. Clean the child's anus after bowel movements and apply diaper cream. The above suggestions are for the question "What should I do if my baby has frequent bowel movements and a red bottom?" and are hoped to be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
