Im looking after my partner who has progressive MS. He was admitted with pneumonia and urosepsis. He had  been taking cocktail of antibiotics. He was discharged 2weeks after. He wasnt completely clear of chest infection so he had more antibiotics at home for another ten days.  Anyway his faeces has mucks and white foam and sometimes very runny. Please tell me what is the cause of that foamy faeces?
Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I read and understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor answering your concern. MS patient can develop chest infections frequently. Because of this other infection also develops. Antibiotics is given to the patient is right and appropriate. Antibiotics therapy for long period can be caused for the diarrhea and disturbance in the intestine. These antibiotics will wash out the normal flora of bacteria of the intestine. This is the reason why the diarrhea. Please do not discontinue the antibiotic therapy. Instead, you can add the Lactobacillus spore therapy. It will replenish the bacilli in the gut and can help reduce your diarrhea problems. Please eat curd, this will also help in reducing diarrhea incidence when you're on the antibiotic therapy. I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. Thank you, ChatDoctorInfectious diseases specialist, ChatDoctor
