Previouly, since last month he was passing stool the colour of which was a bit green at first and then yellow. It continued for fortnight and the one day he passed DARK geern colur stool. we immediately consulted our pediatric who said to observe the same and gave medicine -salmozyme 05 drops twice daily. Next day he passed the same stool he was passing earlier i.e. a bit green first and then yellow till day before yesterday. since two days he is passing LIGHT green colour stool.

Pediatrician 's  Response
I suggest you get a stool routine examination done and look for any infection. Meanwhile you can add a pro-biotic combination like Econorm sachet once a day. Thanks.
