The baby started having stomach issues and some gas at 25 days and 20 days.

Patient's question:

The baby started having stomach issues and gas at 25 days and 20 days. After taking infant powder and lactase for two days, the symptoms improved. However, after stopping the medication for three days, the gas returned and the baby started crying again. At 20 days, it was noticed that she was breathing a bit heavily, so a doctor visit was arranged. The doctor said her trachea wasn't good, but after a few days of medication, there was no improvement. So, the medication was stopped.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I'm glad to answer your question: For the baby's condition mentioned above, neonatal pneumonia cannot be ruled out as the cause of digestive symptoms. It is recommended to have the baby reviewed by the neonatology department and undergo treatment for neonatal asphyxia, pneumonia, mild hypoxic encephalopathy, an open heart with a 3.5mm defect, high jaundice, and at 10 days of age. It's serious, and now the baby needs oxygen therapy, anti-inflammatory treatment, and intensive care. I hope my response is helpful to you.
