What Causes Pale Yellow Stool And Acid Reflux While Recovering From Rotavirus Infection?
My son is 16 months old, just getting over rotavirus. Tonight he had his first solid Stoll and it has a strong smell of urine. His stools have been pale yellow, but he may be autistic. Due to sensory issues he doesn t eat table food. He drinks nothing but lactose free milk and that s all he s had all week due to the virus... is the door still part of rotavirus? He also has severe reflux. He takes Zantac. Thank you

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query symptoms pale yellow stool and acid reflux while recovering from rotavirus infection it points towards Gastro-esophageal reflux disease also known as acid reflux in which which acid from stomach enters into food pipe and throat leading to irritation and inflammation. sometimes side effects of certain medicine can also cause such symptoms. You should take combination of proton pump inhibitors such as Omeprazole or Pantoprazole along with antacids such as Calcium carbonate. You should avoid large meals rather than this take frequent small meals. Drink plenty of water. Avoid spicy,acidic, hot food substances. Visit gastroenterologist once and get it examined and start treatment accordingly. You should go for exercise daily.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
