What Does Foul Smelling Bowel Movement In A Child Mean?
Hi :) 4 yrs old boy has foul smelling yellow "fluffy" looking poos. Hasnt eaten anything out of the ordinary. No temp. Not complaining of any soreness or tendernous anywhere. Poos really smell and float on the water of the toilet bowl, a definate yellow colour and almost look "fluffy" like. Has had this before but lasted only a day or two. We are now its been 5days!!
Hi Welcome to Healthcare-Magic Greetings of the day
Foul smelling stools are due to retained stools in the colon. Decreased motility and decreased intake of fluids are the cause for thsi. Giving soap water enema may be beneficial.
