How to treat a baby with diarrhea who has had 56 bowel movements in one day

Patient's question:

Baby has diarrhea for two days, the loose stool contains curds, preterm baby is 4 months old but at 3 months of age, breastfed baby has diarrhea for one day with 56 bowel movements, how to treat

Doctor's answer:

Consider that the baby may have abdominal cold or digestive problems caused by structural changes brought on by the mother. It is recommended to pay attention to keeping the baby's abdomen warm, wearing a belly band, and applying a navel patch. Children's bodies have weaker immunity, so they are prone to various illnesses. For parents, it is important not to panic and should promptly take the child to a regular hospital for examination and treatment. Avoid blindly giving medication to the baby.
