Hello,

I really appreciate your concern, look if this is the passing of stool just 3 to 4 times in a day then it may not need any treatment and it may not be due to any disease. So no need to worry about this, at the most Lactobacillus can be tried and care needs to be taken for dehydration.

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

Regards,
