Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
Possible causes of diarrhea in a 3-month-old baby:
1. If the baby's abdomen is exposed to cold, it may lead to increased gastrointestinal motility, resulting in diarrhea.
2. If the baby is allergic to certain components in formula milk, diarrhea may occur.
3. If the baby consumes contaminated food, it may lead to bacterial or viral infection, causing intestinal inflammation and resulting in diarrhea.
If diarrhea in a 3-month-old baby is severe, prompt medical attention is recommended.
