Hello,
Loose motion is due to any acute bowel infection he might be facing.
Advise to:
- Follow BRAT diet (banana, rice, applesauce, toast.)
- Give plenty of fluids especially plain water with oral rehydration salt to replace lost fluids and electrolytes.
- Take Tasectan or Pepto Bismol for loose motion, probiotics to stabilize intestinal flora.
Keep regular follow up with his gastroenterologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
