Patient's question:
Newborn babies often experience diarrhea. If you don't feed them randomly, what should you do?Doctor's answer:
It may be due to the child's underdeveloped physiological functions, which makes them prone to infections and gastrointestinal dysfunction. Additionally, they are more susceptible to diseases such as rickets and malnutrition. The diarrhea caused by these conditions can persist. It could also be due to infections, with gastrointestinal infections being the primary factor. Viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens can cause infections through food, respiratory tracts, or water sources. Extraintestinal infections, where organs or tissues outside the digestive tract are affected, can also lead to diarrhea. Disruption of gut flora Long-term and large-scale use of broad-spectrum antibiotics can disrupt gut flora, leading to medication-induced diarrhea. It is still necessary to take the child to the hospital for some tests.
