The condition is intestine infection, which recovers fully once internal pathogens are under complete control.
Guidelines at present are:
- Allow him more liquids - Prefer soft, bland diet - Continue current antibiotic - In our clinic, we add probiotic with lacto bacillus to cover the issue faster.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
