Name: sonia

Hi All, my son is 17 months old. He used to have constipation a few months back but now he is passing stools normally. The problem was that the anal area used to get red. Doctor told us that it was contact dermatitis and gave a steroid cream. It went away with the use but nowadays he is passing stools 3-4 times a day (after a viral infection) passing all the mucus in the stool and now too he is having the dermatitis near the anal area although stools are very soft. I dont want to go for a steroid cream again. I have tried applying coconut oil on the area but to no avail. Plz suggest what could be done about it
