Patient's question:
My baby is four months old and has had diarrhea for almost two weeks. The hospital check-up revealed rotavirus infection. I gave him medicine, and it has improved a lot. In the past two days, he has only had two to three bowel movements a day, but the current stools are still green with bubbles. What could be the reason? There is no bloating or anything, and it sounds okay.Doctor's answer:
Is it breast milk or formula for the baby? Have you sent the stool to be tested? In cases of diarrhea, it is mainly caused by improper diet, such as cold, spicy, and overly greasy foods. Of course, it can also be caused by bacterial or viral gastroenteritis. To confirm the diagnosis, it is best to go to the hospital for a routine stool test. After diagnosis, appropriate treatment measures should be taken. Additionally, the diet should be light, easy to digest, and absorb. Foods that benefit stomach health.
