Hello,  I watch my 5 month old nephew every day... and he has normal bowel movements that are usually a dark green in color..   the last two days he has had liquid stools that were yellowish green in color and the liquid soaks into the diaper and all that is left is a seedy texture that is a whitish color.    Also it doesnt smell like his normal bowel movements..  It smells horrible almost like bile.  He has no fever and doesnt seem sick.  What could this be?
Hi... Thank you for consulting in Chat Doctor. It seems your kid is having viral diarrhea. Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. Unless the kids having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry. There is no need to use antibiotics unless there is blood in the motion. Antibiotics might worsen if unnecessarily used causing antibiotic associated diarrhea. I suggest you use zinc supplements (Z&D Chat Doctor.
