Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my 2 year old son having indugestion issue. at regular intervals he is having loose motion problem. i have shown him to pediatrician. SON is quite active after taking medicine. but my concern is whether his body will dehydrate due to loose motion. would appreciate if you could advice on this.
If the water is lost more in loose diarrhea then child may get dehydrated so it is better to watch for watery diarrhea and according to that give drinking water to child. But it may not be happening, so need to worry about this, still care needs to be taken for hydration.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Akhtarhusain
