Can E Coli Infection Cause Green Bowel Movement?

Hi, my daughter was recently diagnosed with e-coli isolated. She was suffering from a burning sensation and pain when passing water. She has been prescribed Trimethoprim and since then I've noticed on the odd occasion her poo is green. Is there something else wrong ?

Hi, dear
She may have E coli infection in urine. If her bowel habit is normal then don't worry. Just complete the course of antibiotics. If she has any diarrhoea then she should go for stool examination.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
