A. if loose motions are not improving then please go for stool examination (stool rm and stool culture). this will tell if loose motions are due to persistent infection or it is a part of delayed intestinal healing or is osmotic diarrhoea or due to lactose intolerance. can continue probiotics like sachet econorm / respule enterogermina (twice daily), ors. cannot give milk and dairy products, sugary diet, biscuits maida, icecream, packet foods, tea, coffee, soda, chocolate, nonveg diet, fried items (cerelac in small children). can give rice, dal, khichdi curd butter milk, apple banana, lime water coconut water, poha upma daliyay. remain in contact with dr.u many times loose motions can take 15 days to recover due to intestinal damage. continue zinc given by dr for healing of intestinal damage.

A. Teething would probably be the reason that even after giving proper medication and antibiotics your child is still facing loose motions for medicines are continuous continue with that and stop giving will completely to the child is that can definitely be a reason to increase meant of lose motion
