Doctor's answer:

The child has had diarrhea for such a long time, and in addition to considering the possibility of inflammation, there may also be a weak spleen and stomach. If the child is on formula, there is a possibility of intolerance to the formula; if the child is breastfed, it should be considered whether the mother's diet is not appropriate. There is also a possibility that the child's abdomen has been exposed to cold.
Advice: If the child's abdomen feels cold, you can try using an umbilical patch. You can also use Jianwei Xiaoshi Pian, Xingspi Yang'er Ke Li, or You'er Su to regulate the spleen and stomach function. If the child is on formula, you can give them diarrhea formula for a period of time and then switch back to regular formula once the stool returns to normal. If the child is breastfed, the mother should pay attention to her diet, avoiding greasy or rich foods, and especially avoiding cold and raw foods.
