White colored stool

2017-08-28 12:13:35
My son is 4 year old and he has been passing white colored frothy stool for 4 days. He vomited 2 times in these 4 days. Complaining of little stomach ache. Activity has decreased a little but not completely stopped. Eating almost normally and going to school and doing other activities as usual. No fever or any other symptom.   We thought the decrease in activity might be due to arrival of our 2nd baby just a week back. But we are not sure now if its his health or state of mind. Can you please throw some light on what might be happening?

It's likely he may be having a stomach infection and it's best to consult your Paediatrician for the appropriate treatment of the same.Stomach ache,  vomiting and change in stool consistency more likely due to infection rather than a state of mind due to arrival of a sibling.
