Baby is 50 days old. What should I do if I have diarrhea these days?

Patient's question:

Baby is 50 days old. Lately, she has been having diarrhea, with five bowel movements a day. A stool test revealed intestinal inflammation, and medication was prescribed. Today, her green stool seems to be getting worse. Can you help assess if the intestinal inflammation is severe?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your description and the test results, considering the possibility of your child having an intestinal infection, it is recommended to take pediatric intestinal anti-inflammatory medication under the guidance of a doctor. At the same time, attention should be paid to feeding. If breastfeeding, it is suggested to increase the frequency of feeding. If formula feeding, it is recommended to switch to a new brand of formula. The above is advice on this issue. We hope it will be helpful to you, and wish you a speedy recovery!
