Patient's question:
I heard that giving the baby some probiotics appropriately can be very beneficial for the baby's body. Let the baby drink it, but after drinking it, it seems that there hasn't been a bowel movement for several days. I want to know if probiotics are useful for infant constipation and not being able to pass stool.Doctor's answer:
Hello, drinking probiotics will not cause constipation or difficulty in defecation. On the contrary, people who experience constipation or difficulty in defecation can benefit from drinking appropriate amounts of probiotics, which may help alleviate the symptoms. A baby's constipation or difficulty in defecation can be related to many factors. Some babies may suffer from constipation due to an imbalance in their gut microbiota, leading to the symptoms of constipation or difficulty in defecation.
