Question
What are the causes of a child’s white stool?
Answer
A child’s white stool is usually related to indigestion and may also be caused by liver and gallbladder system diseases. If there is mucus and intestinal inflammation in the stool, consider using digestive aids; if the stool is mucoid and purulent, antibiotics may be needed. Additionally, it is recommended to increase fluid intake, avoid cold, spicy, and stimulating food , and provide more nutritious and digestible foods for the child. If symptoms such as jaundiced skin appear, it is advisable to visit a pediatric clinic for relevant examinations and treatment.
