Patient's question:
The baby is breastfeeding and has a gurgling stomach with loose stools. The baby is 13 days old. I usually eat apples, greens, chicken wine, and steamed buns, except for the collagen liquid sold in Australia. The collagen instructions say it is safe for pregnant women to take during breastfeeding.Could this condition be related to what I am eating?
Past treatment history and effectiveness: No specific treatment has been given.
Request for help: Thank you.
Doctor's answer:
This parent suggests taking the child to the hospital for a stool test to check for bacterial or viral infections. Based on the situation, appropriate anti-infective medications should be used in conjunction with oral triple or quadruple active bacterial preparations. Drinking plenty of warm water is also recommended. When the stool is watery, oral Montmorillonite powder can be used in combination. Acupuncture treatment for pediatric diarrhea is quite effective. The child's diarrhea may not be related to what you mentioned. I hope this is helpful to you.
