Patient's question:
What should I do if a newborn has abdominal distension and diarrhea? The child is one month old, why is everything they poop very runny? How is it treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you: Considering intestinal dysfunction caused by indigestion or enteritis, it's also important to check if there is intestinal dysfunction caused by a cold. Additionally, if the newborn is breastfed, their stool may be slightly thinner. This is mainly related to the fact that the gastrointestinal tract of the newborn is not yet fully developed. The mother should eat a light diet, give the baby some water appropriately, and pay attention to keeping the baby's abdomen warm.
