How to deal with green loose stools in a one-year-old baby?

Patient's question:

A one-year-old baby has many green bowel movements a day. What should be done? What are the causes? Previous treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment has been given. What kind of help is needed: What medication to use

Doctor's answer:

Baby having green bowel movements is a normal physiological phenomenon, usually caused by dietary factors. As long as the diet is adjusted properly, the baby's green bowel movements will return to normal quickly. However, if the mother is still not at ease, it is recommended to take the baby to the hospital for a stool test. If the results are normal, it can be considered a physiological cause of green bowel movements, which is not a disease and does not require special attention.
