Hello doctor,

Hi, thank you for asking Healthcare Magic.
With this presentation, I think it could be a case of lactose intolerance. Antibiotics are not effective here. I would suggest you try lactose-free milk and see what will come out.

I hope that answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. We will be delighted to answer more questions from you.
I wish him good health
