Patient's question:
A week ago, a mild bacterial infection of the intestines was detected in a stool test. Montmorillonite and probiotics were taken. Now it has been six days, and the yellow, foamy, and watery stool is still present, with four to five bowel movements a day. Currently, only water is being consumed, and breast milk is given a few times, without any formula. Is the intestinal inflammation not improving?Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm glad to help you with your question:After reviewing the situation you mentioned, the child's spleen and stomach function is still not fully developed, making them prone to diarrhea. As they grow older, this will gradually improve. Currently, there may still be some intestinal inflammation. It's recommended to apply warm compresses and gently massage the abdomen regularly, persist in eating, and regulate the intestines. Pay attention to keeping warm and avoid catching a cold, especially the navel area. I hope my answer is helpful to you. Wishing the child a speedy recovery.
