What are the causes of infantile diarrhea?

Patient's question:

My child at home recently doesn't know what's wrong but has started having diarrhea. They haven't eaten anything bad or caught a cold. What could be the reason?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, babies with diarrhea often experience abdominal pain due to intestinal spasms. Keeping the abdomen warm can relieve intestinal spasms, thereby reducing pain. When the baby is sleeping, make sure to cover the abdomen to prevent it from getting cold. In cold environments, you can use a hot water bag for warm compresses, but be careful to avoid burning the baby. Drinking warm drinks or gently rubbing the baby's abdomen with warm hands can also help.
