What is the cause of diarrhea and blood in the stool of 4-month-old infants?

Patient's question:

The child next door has been having recurrent stomach problems with blood recently, and the whole family is very worried. For a 4-month-old infant with recurrent nausea and vomiting, and jam-like dark red urine, what medicine should they take and how should they be treated?

Doctor's answer:

In this case, it is necessary to first go to a regular hospital's pediatric department to conduct thorough blood tests and seek medical advice. If the tests do not show obvious signs of inflammation or symptoms of physiological diarrhea, you can take many probiotics and medications to regulate the spleen and stomach to nourish the intestines and enhance intestinal digestion. If the tests reveal obvious inflammation, it is necessary to cooperate with taking many antibiotics for treatment. It is recommended to take medication according to the doctor's advice. Additionally, it is essential to pay attention to giving the child more fluids to prevent dehydration. Breastfeeding mothers should pay special attention to drinking and should primarily consume light and easily digestible foods. It is also important to take good care of the child's anal area.
