Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter is having foul smelling bowel movements. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like indigestion , gastroenteritis, gastritis , irritable bowel syndrome , peptic ulcer , lactose intolerance and crohn's disease. Need not to worry. You should avoid large meal intake at a time and take small and frequent meals. You should take diet rich in fluids. I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor may order stool test , blood test , endoscopy and examine physically by palpating . Doctor may prescribe H2 blockers , omeprazole , laxative , loperamide and analgesic . For now eat light , avoid spicy and heavy food .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
