The stool is watery with mucus, and the abdomen makes rumbling sounds. It usually starts to defecate shortly after feeding.Doctor's answer:
Hello, considering that the baby's condition may be caused by intestinal inflammation, it's recommended to have the baby's stool tested for a routine examination. Treatment can include administering oral rehydration salts to prevent dehydration. Additionally, you can try giving the baby Cefixime granules and Amoxicillin granules, combined with Bifidumbacterium infantis for treatment. The condition should improve quickly. Furthermore, applying heat to the abdomen can help with recovery. Wishing the baby healthy growth.
