What Is Causing Watery Stools With Smell And Loss Of Appetite?
my son has had watery stools and loss of appetite for the past few days now. Between his urine and the stools it has an awful smell. I ve been able to get fluids down him but he won t eat. Any suggests to what could be causing this? That s the only thing that s been wrong with him.
I really appreciate your concern, such diarrhea could be due to infection and this condition can be managed with sulfamethoxazole with Trimethoprim dose needs to be adjusted according to age and weight along with this Lyophilized Lactobacillus sachets three times in day. If diarrhea does not respond to this treatment then stool needs to be send for microscopic examination for culture sensitivity test.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Akhtarhusain Shaikh
