General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
Hi, I understand your query & concern. Your baby seems to have teething problem.The loose motions are mostly due to infection incurred while biting any thing that is available to the baby. - suitable antibiotic to control the infection/ kaolin- pectin mixture to control loose motions ( with a pediatrician's advise)is needful. - maintaining hydratio of baby is important. most of the times routine breast feeding suffices/ ORT water with boiled water or Iv fluids are to be added was per doctor's advise. - You are giving biochemical medicine Calcaria phos . Add a pinch of Ferrum phos to it & Repeat the dose every two hours till the motions are controlled. Thanks.
