Hi
I s the pale stool since birth or recent onset? If it is since birth your child should be looked for live disease and investigated with liver function tests, ultrasound abdomen and BULIDA scan to rule out neonatal hepatitis and biliary atresia. If it is of recent onset , stool routine examination and stool culture and sensitivity should be done to know the infection. So consult your Pediatrician for evaluation.
