A. I would have suggested you same to get a stool test done for your child because of the medicines are already gone and the child is not getting ready to test is going to give you clarity about the problem and further medicines can be suggested accordingly as of now for the red bottom I would recommend you to keep applying Boroline anti septic cream and avoid using diapers please
