My 8-month-old baby has been experiencing loose stools for a week. Initially, the frequency was 6 times a day, prompting a visit to the doctor. The prescribed treatment included Enterogermina 2B ampules and Zincat-OD.
Although it's been 6 days since starting the treatment, my baby still passes loose stools 3-4 times a day. I'm concerned that the diarrhea hasn't fully resolved, and I'd like to understand the possible reasons for this persistence.
teething start ho gye Hy to loose stool pass ker rha hy baby
Cause of diarrohea can be Infection ..if infant is bottle fed weather on fresh milk or formula milk if water is Not properly boiled .Or any viral infection.
I would recommend A Stool RE plus C/S from a reputable laboratory.
give ors on demand. some diarrhoea persist for a week or two. add colibid drops , 5 drops before each milk feed
It is common for diarrhea in infants to take up to two weeks to fully resolve. Good sign is that the baby has shown improvement (from 6 to 3-4 stools per day), the stomach is likely still recovering. Considering that you haven’t made any changes to her diet, It could be due to unresolved infection, post-infectious diarrhea (temporary lactose intolerance after an infection), or teething-related changes. Ensure proper hydration with ORS, and offer a balanced diet with binding foods like bananas, rice, and yogurt. If diarrhea persists beyond two weeks, worsens, is accompanied by dehydration (dry mouth, fewer wet diapers, lethargy), fever, or blood/mucus in stools, make an appointment with pediatrician to rule out underlying conditions.

Get the stool detail report test done from good lab so that appropriate treatment can be given
Diarrhea in infants is usually viral in origin and is self-limiting. Ensure proper hydration. As the child is showing signs of improvement, it indicates that disease is progressing towards resolution.
