Hello,

Lactose Intolerance will be on the first days not after 13 months, figures out some other cause. What type of milk you are using?

Use boiled water and introduce soft diet skip milk and give rice, roti cereals, egg, potato, and banana in loose motions. Also, go for stool test for any cyst etcetera.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Hina Javed
