What Causes Constant Loose Stools In A Child?

My granddaughter consistently has a very loose stool. Elise is 2 years and 4 months old. She is a good eater and only drinks soy milk and water. She does not complain of cramping or pain. The color is brown or greenish and kind of like mashed potatoes in consistency. We re wanting to potty train...Help!

Hi,

Thanks for your question. I do understand your pain and discomfort. As per your history is concerned please follow my advise below:

1) Check her STOOL to ruled out any pathological disorders

2) Reduce dairy products

3) If milk is required give it with other foods

4) Add [DIZESS syrup] before diet

5) Add [BECOPLUS dry syrup] once a day everyday

As per your question the cause of loose motion is lactose intolerance.

I hope I was able to address your query. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to write to me. Wishing you all the best.

Thanks,
Dr Uday Nath Sahoo
