Diarrhea,4 Weeks Ago,watery,yellow,mucus,yest Infection.Intolerance?
16 month old started having diarrhea 4 weeks ago. Watery, yellow, very smelly and mucus. Bottom got very sore as if it was burning and got yeast infection. Bottom now better but stools still very loose and smelly. Can smell a bit fishy. Haven't been giving him cows milk during this. Just formula milk, toast and plain food. Intolerance or something else?

16 month old baby suffring from dirrhoea , as dirrhoea is still persisting . when diarrhoea persist fore more than 14 days it is called persisting diarrhoea .
as this was very smelly looks intestinal infection .
yes u shold consult with your doctor .
there are various causes of persisting diarrhoea . intestinal and non intestinal .
in your case it seems your child have allergic to formula milk .
u shold stop formula milk for few days change to cow milk . if still situation remain same consult to doctor and get complete investigation .
to maintain the hydration status give ORS on regular basis .
give home made fluid .
continue other health diet
give zinc supplement also .
