Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
Your son is suffering from colitis (intestine infection).It is due to bacteria.
Colitis is indicated by presence of bacteria in stool.There shouldn't be any bacteria in stool.
Culture of stool should also be done. Antibiotics should be prescribed to your son.
Baby should be given adequate fluids.
Hope I have answered your question.
Take Care
