Hi sir or madam, for the last 3 months, my baby motions are watery, sometimes semi solid, and sometimes semi solid with mucus. It happens daily up to 8 times. I have attached the report in this mail. Please share what kind of problem this could be. The doctor told us to stop breastfeeding. Is this correct? What should I do? My baby is 6 months old.

Breastfeeding should not be stopped without strong evidence. Frequent motions may be due to lactose intolerance or gut infection. Please consult a pediatric gastroenterologist with the stool report. Hydration is crucial.

Dr. Kamran Suggests...

Take a STOOL EXAMINATION, PH & REDUCING SUBSTANCES Test or Take a COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) Test

I am a 29 year old single female. I have been experiencing stomach pain and diarrhea for several months. I consulted a gastroenterologist, who suggested that stress or IBS might be causing these symptoms. He prescribed Tab Novamcin RT, Cap Imodium, and Tab Revortil. After taking the medicines for a month, my pain and bowel issues improved. However, now I feel a heaviness above my navel. My doctor repeated some tests: TSH: 1.71 CRP: 3.46 mg/L Hemoglobin: 11.3 g/dL ESR: 110 mm/hr PCV/Hematocrit: 35.5 percent RDW(CV): 15.2 The doctor prescribed the same medicines again and added Tab Meganeuron OD, but the heaviness around my navel persists.

My baby has been prescribed Enterogermina vials for 5 days because her stool report shows WBC 15 to 20/hpf, presence of mucus (+++), and reducing substances, even though she does not have diarrhea. She currently has no other symptoms but is feeding less than before, previously she drank about 90 mL of formula per feed, and now she only takes around 30 mL. Her weight has not increased in the last 3 weeks. Her birth weight was 2.188 kg, and she currently weighs 4.6 kg. How can I help her increase her weight and improve her milk intake?

I had vomiting and loose motion so my doctor said I have a stomach infection and advised me to get blood and urine reports. I am also having regular back pain and my mouth has a sour taste. I have attached my reports.
