What Causes Wet Farts With Mucus Discharge In A 4 Year Old Child?
It may be sign of intestinal infection
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for asking on this platform
Passage of wet farts with mucus in this age is most likely due to some intestinal infection (commonly protozoal).
Here I would like to get a stool test done and to give anti protozoal like Metronidazole with or without anti bacterial like someFluroquinoloes or Cefalosporins (these are all prescription medications so needed to be prescribed by your pediatrician ).
Giving probiotics with zinc also helps in early recovery.
I would like to know if this is of recent onset or there is past history of frequent similar episodes. In case of frequent episodes allergic intestinal disorder like celiac disease should also be ruled out.
So I request you to please consult a pediatrician for evaluation and prescription of medication.
I hope this helps.
Please let me know if you have any more doubts.
Regards
Proper evaluation is needed
