Patient's question:
The child is 6 months and 1 day old, having 4-5 bowel movements a day, and is in good spirits. They are breastfed, and their stool is flower-shaped with sometimes crystalline particles.Previous treatment and effectiveness:
The doctor said it was indigestion and not a serious issue. They took digestive medicine, but it didn’t work.
Help needed:
I want to know what’s going on and whether it’s possible to manage without medication.
Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, we also initially suspect that your child may have digestive issues. We recommend using Dinggui'er abdominal patch, or you can consider using Mamiaoi, Sili Kang, or Simida as appropriate. If your baby is formula-fed, pay attention to the correct method of mixing the formula: first add water, then add the formula, and you can also add some chrysanthemum crystal powder to the formula. Additionally, it is important to pay special attention to your baby's daily care and hygiene during feeding.
