Thanks for asking
I gone through your question, your 2 year old daughter passing stool with blood since few days, she having tummy ache.
The stool with blood should be treated with course of antibiotics. If i was your treating pediatrician i would advised you Syp Cefexime 10 mg per kg per day in two divided dose for 5 days and tab zinc 20 per day . The blood content of stool start reducing in 2 day of therapy. The above medicine is not availble without precription so you should visit doctor.
hope i answer your query
