General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Green coloured stools with strong smell is suggestive of bacterial infection and may need to be treated with antibiotics. Since your child is not showing interest in feeding, I would recommend a visit to his pediatrician for an appropriate antibiotic prescription.
