Patient's question:
The earliest the baby started having yolk-like watery stools on the 14th, and it returned to normal by the 19th. During this period, a stool examination was done, which indicated indigestion or poor digestion. On the 23rd, the baby was given apple puree once, and soon after, they started having bowel movements. At first, it was fine, but then they developed diarrhea, which has continued until now. When the baby strains during a bowel movement, the flesh around the anus comes out. Is that what's happening?Doctor's answer:
Children with the above conditions, if nausea and vomiting persist for a long time, may lead to rectal prolapse. It is important to actively seek medical attention for a thorough examination.1. For children with nausea and vomiting as described, they can take medications to restore the balance of intestinal flora. If the stool is very loose, they should take medications to protect the gastrointestinal mucosa and stop diarrhea, such as montmorillonite.
2. Prolonged nausea and vomiting may lead to rectal prolapse. It is necessary to actively seek medical attention for examination.
3. Probiotics are medications used to restore the balance of intestinal flora. It is best to avoid long-term use and instead allow the intestines to produce probiotics naturally. Long-term consumption of probiotics generally does not cause constipation, as they have a bidirectional regulatory effect.
