Hi, crying while passing stools in a child can be due to hard stools, infective stools, worm infestation. In most cases, the main reason for crying during passing motion is due to hard stools. Since, in case of your child hard stools are not present we have to look for other causes of crying during passing motions. In case of infective stools, the stools become acidic and as a result when the child passes motion it causes burning sensation due to which child cries during passing motion. In worm infestation there can be pain while passing motions. Kindly do stool for routine microscopy test and stool culture test. Give more Fluids to child. Give soft diet to child. Review with reports. Are re-examination with doctor should be done so that we may not miss any important finding. An ultrasound abdomen is also recommended. Take care.
