Is It To Be Concerned About The Child Have Red Stool?
Hi...the possibilities are - 1. Antibiotic associated diarrhea 2. Cow s milk protein intolerance 3. Infective diarrhea or bacillary dysentery. I suggest you get a stool routine test done and followup with your pediatrician. Unless the kid s having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry. Regards - Dr. Sumanth
