Patient's question:
My daughter is 3 years old. She has been having normal bowel movements recently, but in the past two days, her stools have turned green. Could you please explain why a 3-year-old child might have green stools?Doctor's answer:
If green stool appears again, it may be due to indigestion. It is recommended to give the baby more warm water to drink, cook some soft and rice porridge for the baby, and eat some light and easily digestible supplementary foods. It is also important to ensure that all of the baby's items are hygienic. Eat at regular intervals and in appropriate quantities, and reduce snacking. Eliminate picky eating and pay attention to a balanced nutrition. The combination of meat and vegetables should be appropriate. It is very important to cultivate the habit of eating at regular intervals and in appropriate quantities for the child.
