What Is The Treatment For Red Bumps On The Stomach Of A Child?
My 5 month old is constantly gassy. He is formula fed and sometimes I have to assist him while he poops as instructed by my Dr but I m wondering when this will pass? Also he has tiny red bumps only on his stomach wondering if it could be caused from teething

hi, babies who are on formula field usually more prone to pass gas. try to give breastfeeding to your child it will decrease the symptoms of gaseous abdomen. Teething usually occurs around 7 months of age and the red rash that you are mentioning are not related to teething. kindly attach a picture of the rash for proper diagnosis and advice. An examination by doctor should also be done so that we may not miss any important finding. Take care.
