What Does White Particles In Stool Indicate?
My 15 week old son had pooed 4 times today each time it has got white lumpy bits in and the smell is horrendous I can hardly breath he's eating as normal no temperature and seems fine in himself he obviously doesn't have solids anymore and he's on the same milk he has always been on

Thank you for consulting in Health care Magic, these white lumpy bits are undigested particles of food- may be potato or any starch from carbohydrate. Doubtless you know such smell can indicates infection or disbacteriosis of interstine. That's why we needs additional methods of examination:stool analysis and stool culture for bacterial , fungal flora and sensitivity to antibiotics.
1.Without examination i can prescribe econorm(saccharomyces) 1/2 paket 3 times 5 days , mix with a little water for elimination of pathogenic flora
2.ORS solution 5-10 ml every 5 min to keep your baby hydrated
3.If state will be worse then start antibiotic-cefixime according age
Best regards
