<human>: My son is 4 years old and he suffered from bladder injection about 8 days back. After the treatment was completed, he now has frequent bowel movement and sits for long in the toilet and visits 3-4 times a day. Can you please advice what could be the reason and treatment for it?
<bot>: Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Few possibilities can be considered with these symptoms:1. Gastroenteritis which probably a viral infection of the gut.2. Dysentery, bacterial infection, especially if there is blood in the stools and associated with fever.3. Can be as a side effect of medications given for bladder infection especially if augmentin-amoxycillin group of Chat Doctor. .in that case you need to stop this medicine and child will get better.4. Lastly, it can be non-specific and will resolve on few days. You need to check if he is passing good quantity of stools every time else a possibility of constipation should be thought. Get a stool routine examination done if its loose and watery and rule out infection to start off with. Happy to clear further doubts. Take care.
