The father of a two-month-old baby consulted us online for excessive flatulence accompanied with belching.

Her parents added that these episodes occurred immediately post feeds. She was exclusively breast-fed. Her mother said that she also took great care with her diet and avoided oily and spicy foods.

There were no episodes of loose stools or vomiting and she used to demand feeds every 2 hours or so.

They did not want her to take any other medicine except for Homoeopathy and hence did not take her to any other doctor before us.

Based on the signs and symptoms, she was prescribed the Homoeopathic remedy, Mag Phos. Her complaints reduced within a day of initiation of medication.

She was completely better by the end of one week and showed no recurrence of those symptoms later on.
