What Causes Dark Green,runny,sticky Stools?

Hi, my daughter is 18 months old and has had a runny nose for the past week or so. After a few days the clear mucus turned thicker and slightly yellow. She got a cough around that time, which seemed to be the peak of whatever whe was at. She had a fever at the very beginning. She has been pulling at her ears a little, although this is something she does when she is tired anyways, so I'm not sure if it may be/have been an ear infection. My question though is over the last two days her stool has been dark green, runny and sticky. what should I do (if anything at all)?

Hello. Welcome to HCM. Your baby may have a viral infection or an ear infection. I would suggest you to go and visit a pediatrician in order to be more sure. Some stool test analysis may be necessary.
