Patient's question:
The baby will be four months old in another week. They have been breastfeeding and have had diarrhea. Previously, their stools were like beans, but now they are yellow watery green loose stools with foam. Over the past two days, they have been having more frequent bowel movements, with smaller amounts each time, and they strain a lot when having a bowel movement, causing their buttocks to turn red. They have been hungry and eager to breastfeed. Their feet are always cold, and they only get warm when sleeping. Their forehead is sometimes hot and sometimes cool, they sweat a lot, and they are irritable and constantly scream. What is wrong with the baby?Treatment history and effectiveness: probiotics, tannic acid protein yeast powder, Sillakon, umbilical patch, composite casein enzyme capsules.
What help do you need: want to know the cause of the diarrhea and get help with treatment.
Doctor's answer:
According to what you mentioned, the child has a weak spleen and stomach, and liver fire, as well as insufficient qi and blood due to the weakness of the spleen and stomach. It is recommended that you seek treatment from a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for a comprehensive evaluation and nurturing. The earlier the treatment starts, the better the outcome. Probiotics, protease protein yeast powder, Sillan, navel patches, and cross-linked caseinase capsules can all be stopped. Overuse of medication burdens the child's spleen and stomach, creating a vicious cycle. Wishing your child a healthy growth.
