Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My daughter has spins bifida and has had a small bowel obstruction in November. She was hospitalized and it eventually took care of itself. Recently she had s stomach virus that lingered. Her feces had no odor. She has been burping and it smelled like feces. We went to the dr, had an X-ray and has a hard stool. We have been treating her with laxatives. She is having bowel movements but are odorless but she is occasionally burping the terrible odor. What do you recommend?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If there are no bowel movements, and foul-smelling burps, it could be a prelude to bowel obstruction. Restoration of bowel movements should soon be achieved, otherwise, I recommend to see a doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
