Suggest Remedy For Painful Bowel Movements Infants

My 2 1/2 year old boy is having small, frequent bowel movements that are relatively formed for the last few nights, which is unusual from his normal pattern. He has gotten a very irritated bottom and is in considerable amount of pain when we have to clean him after a BM. Does he need to be seen in the clinic?

cereals , pulses , legumes , organic fresh fruits .
- Make sure that he chews the food thoroughly .

- Addition of digestive enzymes in the drug basket after the discussion
with his pediatrician will recover faster .
- Avoid dairy fat , junk foods , biscuits , pastries till recovery .
- Sitz bath and local application of Xylocaine ( 5 % ) jelly gives better
soothing .
