Gastroenteritis
My son recently recovered from gastroenteritis. His dysentery fever subsided. It has been 3 days. Still I see some undigested carrot pieces, mustard seeds in his poop. Why is it so? Earlier it was not so. He is a 5 year school going kid.

Don't rush into giving him all the food at once now....his gut needs to recover completely though the acute symptoms have gone down healing is a long term process and it will take some time for the gut to be healthy as early..just matter of few days and then he'll be alright to eat all again
