Why Is My 7 Months Baby Passing Sticky Grey Stools?
My 7 Months baby is passing sticky stools in grey, green (with white solids some times) in loose as well as solid since a week. Doctor has suggested to feed ORS liquids and also suggested to give Zinsy to child about 2.5 Ml per twice a day. As of now Zinsy is not given to child. Also, potty area is now greatly affected with fungal infection and spreading in that area. We are using siloderm in the affected area and doctor alos suggested to continue with thw same. But, infection is not deteriorating. Request to suggest for quick recovery. Thanks Raghavendra

Hello
welcome to HCM
I understand your concern but you should not worry. At this age the babies stool become grey because he/she starts eating semi solids foods also.If I were her treating doctor, I would prescribe her zinc oxide paste to apply on the area and also daktarin gel by mixing each other twice a day for 5 days.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us and do a follow up.
*Always check for history of allergy before taking any medicine.
wishing your child good health
