What could red sores with loose stools in infants suggest?
Patient: Hi my 13 month old child over the last 24 hours become very grogy and keeps appearing in wat looks like nettle stings in random places on his body, his bum is extremely red and sore his stool is very loose and mucusy and green, I m really concered but could it be part of teethin or something else? Doctor: Hi, your child has probably got stomach infection as the child has loose stools and rash over perianal region is present. In my opinion, you should give ORS solution to the child to prevent dehydration, and antibiotic like syrup oflox needs to be given for 3 days. Also, you need to give enterogermina ampule once a day for 3 days to increase gut immunity. Apply rashfree cream at the rash at bumps for 5 to 6 days. Take care.
