Question 3

for couple weeks, i have bathroom issue. like cramping at times but i have noticed possibly mucus in stool. like jelly-like and on stool like white mucus i think. no blood, i can eat still. stool frequency has changed. i tend to google so im scared?

Accepted Answer

Mucus: I regard this as mucus colitis or irritable bowel syndrome. The presence of mucus is not a sign of serious pathology. Can you identify any food or stress that triggers loose bowel movements? Have you noted bouts of cramping &amp; loose stools in the past? A fodmap diet(Google it) can be helpful. I don't think you have inflammatory bowel disease or an infection. Consult a gastroenterologist as needed.

Question 4

is it normal for infants & toddlers to have greenish stool first after diarhea that turns into yellowish later on i.e it is a part of recovery.

Accepted Answer

Yes, expected: It takes time till the gut regains its normal function, hence the different stools colors, so long the child is otherwise healthy

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Green stool: No you don't have to worry unless the infant has severe diarrhea.

12 weeks infant with mucous blood tinged stool?

Accepted Answer

Anal fissures are: A possible cause, but only his pediatrician can tell you if it is from a more serious cause after examining him.

Question 7

is infant teething accompanied with seedy stool and rash?

Accepted Answer

no: Teething may accompany a rash and/or stool irregularity, but teething doesn't cause these problems.

Question 8

is it fine if an infant passes loose stool 3-4 times a day or sometimes more than that?

Accepted Answer

Loose stool: It is fine if the stool is not watery but just loose. Younger babies can have a bowel movement each time they eat. As long as the baby is urinating and not having any other symptoms, this is probably normal.

Question 9
