My son is 2 years 3 months old.for the past 2 days he is passing stools with bit pain in four to six times daily. it does not look like diarrhea. but the stool is soft.

yesterday took him to a doctor and she said the tummy is okay and no pain and gave probiotics for 2 days.

one time in past in India , doctor suggested to use Hiflox-50 during travel for any stomach issue. can we give it tonight until I go and see doctor tomorrow?

Accepted Answer

frequently passing  motions after meals is generally seen and is normal in children unless it is  associated with some chronic infection   like amoebiasis or may be indigestion or could be habitual also .so  it needs proper assessment to rule out the cause, but if the smell,colour and consistency of the motion is more orless normal and there is no other problem like fever or vomiting you should  not worry for now .
you can give probiotic enterogermina probiotic 2 times a day and consult doctor fornre proper treatment if problem continues.
