Patient's question:
The baby girl is 3 months old. She keeps having foamy stools. The village doctor said it's due to heatiness and poor digestion, and prescribed Compound Pancreatin Powder and Swinor Oral Liquid. Originally, she didn't have diarrhea, just a lot of foam, but after taking the medicine for two days, she started having diarrhea again. The foam is still quite present. What should we do?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Your question is about your child's abnormal bowel movements, and the cause needs to be comprehensively analyzed. There are several possibilities, such as spleen deficiency, dampness accumulation, cold damage (Shanghan), or food stagnation. You can start by using remedies that aid digestion and strengthen the spleen.Recommendation: It is recommended that you provide a detailed description of your child's accompanying symptoms and overall condition (such as cold or heat, dietary preferences, bowel and bladder functions, sleep, and mental and emotional state). Once the situation is fully understood, traditional Chinese medicine can help regulate it. If necessary, you can also consult a TCM expert through your family doctor for a signed agreement, which can provide you with detailed analysis and guidance.
