What Causes Loose Stools In A Kid?

My 2 yr old son has loose stool that burns his skin. I have not been able to find any pattern with his diet. It has been random for 2 months. We thought it was yogurt so we pulled it from his diet for two weeks and it happened again. I just don t know what else to look for that could be causing this.

C. Parasitic infestation
D. Indigestion

So, please consult your doctor for investigating the cause for loose motion.
Mean while you can give oral rehydration solution after every motion to replace fluid loss.
