Loose motion
My Sister delivered a baby in the month of december. After that she is facing the problem of loose motion and frequent fever. At times there are days in which she has to run to the loo for 10 times. She was also admitted to the hospital where she was given very high doses of antibiotics for frequent fever. Various kinds of test were done but nothing serious was diagnosed.For some days it was fine but the problem is not cured now also. When consulted to another doctor he is saying that due to very high doses antibiotics her stomach has been washed out completely means the good bacteria are also eliminated from the stomach. Now also she is going to the loo atleast 4-5 times a day and having fever at night. Please suggest what to do???
