My 2 year old had diarrhea for a few days. Now stools are better but still soft and light colored, and at least 2-3 times today already (usually it s once - maybe twice). I have notice clear stringy things in her stool. Best way to describe is like very thin spaghetti but clear and a couple inches long. Also very distinct fluid filled sacs that resemble the juice filled sacs you would see in an orange. Nothing is moving or appears to be alive . No itching, no vomitting, she seems to be hydrating and eating pretty normal. What could this be?
Welcome to the ChatDoctorI have gone through your question and understand your concerns. It seems that your child is suffering from post diarrheal Castro colic reflux. Also, there is a possible worm infestation. I would recommend you to get your children poop examined for ova and cyst to rule out worm infestation. Gastro colic reflux doesn't require any treatment and improves over a period of 1-2 weeks. You may give him probiotics such as enterogermina for early recovery. In case the poop report suggest worm infestation, you may give him deforming Chat Doctor. Hopefully this will help you. I would be happy to help you in any further questions. Take care
