What Causes Mouth Ulcers And Loos Stools In Children?
Hi Doc, My 2.5 year son has loose motions last month, which reoccur again. The stool routine test shows nothing significant othet then Pus Cells :1-2/hpf and Macropages:1-2 /hpf. He has also got a moth ulcer (insdie the cheek) which does not pain. We have given him gutrite and gramogyl syrup during the period of loose motion. Kindly suggest.

Hi....You have given me specific points, which are very very useful.
1. Mouth Ulcer - single (as you have not mentioned as ulcers)
2. Chronic diarrhea - lasting more than a month.
If i were your pediatrician I would consider in my differential diagnoses - Inflammatory bowel disease and work it up. Your kid might require endoscopy and biopsy. You meet your pediatrician with these tips and discuss with him.
Regards - Dr. Sumanth
