Bloody mucus stool

Bloody mucus stool

My son is 1 yr + 8 months, weighing 11kg and 26 inches(650mm) tall. Stooling with mucus but recently with stain of blood. Ive used flagyl (antibiotics) but did not stop. I Have been to the hospital, Doctor gave some drugs (I assume antibiotics is included)and this is the 5th day out of 7 days of using the drug but to no avail. Pls help.

Inflammatory bowel disease is one possible cause of both blood and mucous in the stool. Diverticulosis can also be a possibility. Having blood in the stool is not normal, and he needs to be looked at again by another doctor for treatment. good luck.

Thanks so much for your answers/assistance, you ar doing a great job. The stooling has normalised now even without taking him to the Doctors again. However, im still monitoring him in case it relapses.
