Question Category : Diarrhea
My son aged 18 months has been having high fever for the last 4 days along with severe diarrhea (loose motion at least 5-6 times a day). He is being treated for viral of the stomach. He was on anti-diarrhea, paracetamol and a throat medicine for the last 3 days. His condition did not improve. Today his doctor has given him antibiotics. How long does this condition last? Could he be suffering from dengue? Check Out the Answer
Question Category : Diarrhea
My two year old daughter had a bout of diarrhea last night that was incredibly foul smelling. It smelled like an old outhouse, for lack of a better description. She had some vomiting, but it seems to be secondary to the diarrhea as it was pretty solid vomiting, not the fluidly vomit usually associated with the flu. What could be the cause of this incredibly bad smelling, watery, tan-colored diarrhea? Check Out the Answer
Question Category : Diarrhea
Our 16 month old daughter experienced a long bout (3-4 months) of diarrhea earlier this year. It resolved itself while it was being investigated by a variety of experts, as did the rectal prolapse that went along with it. After about a week of normal stools, she has developed very pale (tan-colored) stools that seem to have sand in them. (We know it's not sand, but that gives you an idea of the texture.) Otherwise, they are of normal texture, and although they're odd-smelling, they're not nearly as foul as the diarrhea. Are pale, sandy stools normal? She eats very well and drinks about 2 cups of water daily in addition to older babies' formula. Check Out the Answer
