What is the reason for diarrhea in a four-month-old child?

Patient's question:

A four-month-old child has diarrhea, and as a parent, I am very worried, afraid that the child's condition will worsen. Regarding the issue I just mentioned, I hope the doctor can answer.

Doctor's answer:

A four-month-old baby experiencing diarrhea could be due to improper diet. It is recommended to take the baby to the hospital for a stool test to determine the cause of the diarrhea so that it can be addressed accordingly. Do not change the baby's diet arbitrarily. If the baby is breastfed, the mother should avoid certain foods! Pay attention to maintaining a good lifestyle and keeping the room at a comfortable temperature. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can give the baby a moderate amount of probiotics.
