What are the red particles in baby feces1

  Firstly, if the baby's stool contains red particles, the mother should first rule out whether it is due to complementary foods containing red pigments, such as vegetables like carrots, or if the child is breastfed, whether it is due to the mother's nipple cracking, pus, and bleeding. If the child sucks, it can also cause the stool to appear red. If it is due to these two reasons, there is no need to worry about this situation, it is a normal situation.

  Secondly, as the child's intestinal function is not yet fully developed, parents should also pay attention to investigating the reasons for the appearance of red granules. The red changes in stool may be caused by the shedding of intestinal mucosa, and there is no need to worry about this. As the baby grows older, intestinal function will gradually improve. If parents are still worried, they can go to the hospital to check their stool and eliminate dysentery.

  Finally, we should pay attention to observing the baby's stool and understand their physical condition through different colored stools. If any abnormal conditions are found, we can consult professional experts for further information. If the baby is breastfed, the mother should also pay attention to maintaining a healthy diet, which is also beneficial for the baby.
