Patient's question:
Zigang has been 40 days old, and recently I noticed that his stool is green and very liquid. I don't know what's going on? His bowel movement frequency is once a day. The stools in the past few days were all golden yellow. What assistance do you need: Thank you for your guidance.Doctor's answer:
Possible reasons for green stool:Breastfed infants often have acidic stools, which are slightly green and may contain many white particles. For formula-fed infants, green stool may indicate increased intestinal movement or inflammation, signaling nausea and vomiting.
Advice: Stool (feces) consists of undigested food residue. The digestive system excretes this undigested residue from the large intestine through the anus in the form of feces. I believe the issue should not be serious, but it's best to check it out anyway.
The above advice is for the question "Why is my son's stool green?" and I hope it helps. Wishing you good health!
