Hi sir or madam, for the last 3 months, my baby motions are watery, sometimes semi solid, and sometimes semi solid with mucus. It happens daily up to 8 times. I have attached the report in this mail. Please share what kind of problem this could be. The doctor told us to stop breastfeeding. Is this correct? What should I do? My baby is 6 months old.

Breastfeeding should not be stopped without strong evidence. Frequent motions may be due to lactose intolerance or gut infection. Please consult a pediatric gastroenterologist with the stool report. Hydration is crucial.

My 4 month old baby has been experiencing constant vomiting for the past month. We recently got a blood test done, and the CRP level came back as 18 mcg per ml. I am concerned about what this means and what could be causing the vomiting.

I feel a sensation of gas formation while sitting, along with slight pain. Could this be due to hemorrhoids or a urinary infection? What tests or scans should I get to find out?

She was diagnosed with typhoid on September 1, and although her blood reports now confirm that the typhoid has been cured, she is still experiencing abdominal pain. Despite taking gastric medication, the pain continues. Please advise on what could be causing this ongoing discomfort and what further steps or tests should be considered.
