A member asked:
My 2 yr has hi ph in his stools and the acidity has been causing rashs &fungus in his skin. 3/4 stools daily & not all diarrea. lactose intolerance?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: A high ph is alkaline, not acid. Any diarrhea can cause diaper rash. There are many causes of diarrhea at this age - infection, malabsorption, celiac etc. Please follow up with your doctor; see a ped GI specialist if recommended. Meanwhile clean with soft cloth and soap/water, and use appropriate antibiotic or antifungal ointment for the rash. Lactose intolerance is uncommon under age 6.
