What Causes Sandy Diarrhea Post Treatment For Stomach Flu In A Child?
My 2 year old daughter was seen in ER on 2/21/15 and was told she has the stomach flu. A week later she is still acting like herself. She has been extremely more clingy with her mom, more irritable and seems to still have tummy problems. On 2/28/15 she has had diarrhea that is dark brown with a sandy texture that is very hard to clean off her; gave her a bath after one incident to help clean it off. Is this something I should be worried about?? She is also coughing a lot at night.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is the viral infection then this is nothing to worry because such condition is self limiting, may not need any treatment, coughing might be due to allergic condition, no need to worry about this, hope this information helps, take care.
