What Causes Greenish Stools With Foul Odor In A Baby?
Hello! We have an 18 month old baby who had 2 previous amoebiasis infections. For the last 2 days his tools are greenish, bad odor but not loose. Frequency was just 2x a day. Is it an indication that amoebia may be present again? He doesn t seem to be having any stomach pains as he is active and cheerful.

this could be a sign of amoebiasis and could also be a regular gastroenteritis
amoebiasis is usually associated with mucus in stools
you need to perform a stool analysis to diagnose the exact cause
