A. Your daughter is experiencing frequent bowel movements, even though the loose motion has stopped after taking medicine. This could be due to several reasons, such as: 1. Dietary Changes: Sometimes, after loose motions, the digestive system can take some time to return to normal, and this can lead to more frequent but normal stools. 2. Gut Sensitivity: After diarrhea, the intestines may be sensitive for a while, leading to increased frequency of stools. 3. Stomach Irritation: Even though the loose motion has stopped, the stomach may still be recovering from the irritation. 4. Infection or Virus: A mild stomach infection or viral illness might still be causing frequent stooling, but without loose stools. What You Can Do: 1. Hydration: Ensure your child stays well-hydrated, as frequent stooling can lead to dehydration. You can offer oral rehydration solutions (ORS) or plenty of water. 2. Bland Diet: Provide easily digestible, bland foods like rice, boiled potatoes, toast, or bananas. Avoid oily, spicy, or heavy foods that might irritate the stomach further. 3. Probiotics: You can consult a doctor about giving probiotics to help restore the healthy gut bacteria that might have been disturbed after diarrhea. 4. Monitor for Other Symptoms: Keep an eye out for other symptoms like fever, weakness, or loss of appetite, which could indicate an underlying issue. If the frequent stooling continues or if you notice other concerning symptoms, it would be best to consult with a pediatrician to rule out any infections or other issues.
