Patient's question:
My child was born via C-section. 20 days after birth, there was still a bit of bleeding from the umbilicus. For half a month, I continuously disinfected the umbilicus. During this time, my child's stomach kept making gurgling sounds, and I didn't pay too much attention to it. After the full moon, I noticed mucus in my child's stool.Doctor's answer:
First, personally, I recommend that parents collect their child's stool and take it to the hospital for a routine stool examination. In this case, the first thing to rule out is whether the baby has physiological diarrhea. If it is physiological diarrhea, then no special treatment or management is required. Physiological diarrhea generally improves gradually as the child grows older, usually around the time the baby is 6 months old.
