What should I do if a child has a bloated stomach and green stool?

Patient's question:

Having green diarrhea with abdominal distension, tapping the small abdomen feels like tapping a drum. Normal body temperature, breastfeeding is about the same as before, but no improvement after 20 days.
Previous Treatment and Effects:
Visited the women and children's hospital, did a stool test showing some intestinal inflammation, and was prescribed medication, but it didn't work.
Help Needed:
I would like to ask for your advice.

Doctor's answer:

Consider the possibility of a relationship between indigestive nausea, vomiting, or enteritis. Further laboratory tests on stool are needed for diagnosis, specifically to check for white blood cells. If enteritis is confirmed, Cefixime Suspension or Coptis Rhizoma Tablets can be taken for treatment. In cases where the stool test is normal, probiotics and Montmorillonite Powder are recommended for treatment. The above suggestions are for the question "What should I do if my child has bloating and green stools?" and are hoped to be helpful. Wishing you good health!
