Welconme to the HCM,
Black coloured and foul smelling stool directs that the probably the child has contracted some GIT infection. It is advisable to go for the stool culture and accordingly child to be given some relevant antibiotic according to the culture report so that child be releived from this problem.
Hope the query is answered.
