What is the reason for the baby's frequent loose stools for three months?

Patient's question:

What is the reason for the baby having loose stools for three and a half months? And the weight gain is small. Treatment history and effectiveness: no treatment. What help do you want: what is the reason? How to treat

Doctor's answer:

Due to the faster peristalsis of the child's gastrointestinal tract, the number of bowel movements per day may be higher, which aligns with the characteristics of a child's gastrointestinal function. If the child is able to eat, sleep well, and maintains a good mental state, with normal weight growth, it is considered physiological diarrhea and does not require treatment. However, if there is poor appetite and a poor mental state, it is related to the disease and needs timely treatment. Commonly used medications include Montmorillonite powder and probiotics. The child's condition can gradually recover, indicating that the condition is not severe and the child can take the aforementioned medications to gradually recover.
