    Whenever he passes stools apply coconut oil. That would ease the redness and cures the wounds too.i heard this from my fren whose sun also passed motion often. Have a eye on his weight. If that's fine indeed not worry. Its normal for BF baby to pass loose stools. So don't worry but for wounds once u apply the ointment,next time coconut oil alternatively. Try and let me know whether this helps.

    As Vijayarahini said, after cleaning the anus apply pure coconut oil.
    If you BF him, check your diet. If its spicy, then also LO may pass motion often and due to karam(in ur food), he might have got some wounds.
    Try this and if still it exists better consult a good paed.

    I was suggested to put t-bact oinment for this. This is very normal during mothers feeding. only thing is handle with much care, if the rashed spread it will be very painful for kid. So keep the place dry after he passes motion use soft cotton dipped in water to clean the area...

    Why is he passing stools so often, that too for the past 1.5 months? What is paed saying? Ointment, coconut oil are all good for the wound. But for loose stools, have you checked for allergies? If you are EBF then please check if DS is allergic to something that you eat.
