Patient's question:
The son is now six months old. He has five or six bowel movements a day. It's not watery; it's thick and sticky, and the amount is not large. His spirits are quite good. The hospital check revealed a small amount of white blood cells, which is not a big deal. They prescribed some cephalosporin to see if it helps. But after taking it for three or four days, it's still the same. I'm really desperate. Is this a symptom of diarrhea in newborns? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, children's diarrhea is related to dietary changes, improper diet, food accumulation, colds, etc. It is recommended to take probiotics, smectite powder, and oral liquid of Sizmo Decoction to treat diarrhea. Massage techniques can also be used, such as rubbing the abdomen, pinching the spine, and separating yin and yang. The baby should eat less and more frequently, and pay attention to keeping the baby's abdomen warm. The mother should eat light foods and avoid spicy and too cold foods. I hope my answer can help you. Wishing the baby a speedy recovery and growing up healthy and happy.
