What Can Cause Amonia Like Smell From Bowel Movement?
My granddaughter had a diaper rash that went on and off for about 9 days and I took her to a pediatrician and they said the rash was a yeast type and they gave me a topical to use until it cleared up. It cleared up within 3 days but I have noticed an amonia smell in he BM s, and I was wondering what could be causing this odor?
