Infant With Eczema Using Steroid Creams. Greenish Watery Stools. Due To Multivitamin Syrup?
Hello Doctor, my daughter who is 4.5 months old used to pass 3-4 loose poops since the time of her birth. She has been prescribed topical steroid 0.1% for her eczema 4 days back, also multivitamin syrup..since then she has been passing green watery stools 5-6 times a day, though her eczema has subsided really well. What could be the reason, i m really worried..:(

Hi,
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
Do not worry regarding the green color of the stool.
Green color of the stool indicates increased gut motility and nothing else.
So if there is no blood in the stool or the stools are not watery and large quantity and baby is other wise active one need not worry regarding the color of the stool.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
