Avatar f tn can amoxicillin cause green poop my son is 7 months and has been taking it for 2 days,now his poo is dark green and soft but he hasnt really eaten much either so i dont know if its the medicine of the lack of food.
Avatar f tn My 8 month old was given a 10 days course of amoxicillin for an ear infection. We finished the antibiotic and 2 days later, my son started breaking out in hives. He has been doing this for 36 hours now. They come and go, they will appear in one area, disappear, then appear in another. The on-call nurse (it's the weekend) told us he probably has a virus, treat it with benadryl every 6 hours and the hives should go away in 2-3 days.
716841 tn?1289948186 The stool can become green on taking food rich in green leafy vegetables. If this is not the cause, then the stool is passing out of the large intestine at a very rapid rate so the bile does not break down. This can happen if you have malabsoroption syndromes. A viral infection can change the stool color to dark bottle green color. Do discuss this with your doctor and get yourself examined. Hope this helps. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage.

Avatar m tn This is a sign of giardia, which you can pick up from your dog, cat, handling shoes that were in a watery area outside, just about anywhere. If this persists, and/or if the stool is green and floats, you will need to see a doctor for a diagnosis and a pill that will knock it out. If you don't take care of it, then you and your animal (presuming that you have one) are reinfecting each other, your animal should also be checked by a vet. Watch for diarrhia in your pet.
Avatar f tn I am 33 weeks and around the same time I had green stool. It's actually perfectly normal and means you must be eating more iron or salad or greens. Usually green stool is a good sign. But you can check with you doctor if you're concerned. I had it though and it went away about a week later.
Avatar n tn My son, age 22 months, has been having episodes of green stool for the past month, on and off. Sometimes it's very loose, and other times less so, but it becomes very bright green and it stains his skin, almost like food coloring. He hasn't eaten anything unusual or green. In fact, his appetite is low and he's a very picky eater - mostly yogurt, fruit, crackers. The pediatrician says it must be food-related, and she tested his stool for a bacteria that wasn't present.
Avatar f tn the more you have in you, the more your body can push out whatever its not liking. the most common causes of green stool are food coloring and excess fiber, but it does depend on what kind of green youre talking about. if its very slimy and not like normal diarrhea, its most likey bile, stomach acids, etc. if its an acceptable consistency, looks like youd expect it to, and just tinted, its most likely fiber or food colorings.

Avatar f tn But lately for the past week or been pooping green, and Its dark green color, could this mean labor is starting soon? Also loosing bits and peices of my mucus plug here and there, abd having lower dull back pain all day long and lots of "lightening crotch" im so miserable!! Please help ladies!
Avatar f tn Leafy greens can cause loose green stool. I have IBS and used to get that every time I ate salad. Taking fiber helps, like metaucil. Iron can also make poop green, as can blue food coloring. Pregnancy=weird poop.
Avatar m tn I would say you need to go see a Gastroenteorologist if your problems have continued from more then a week. If they have subsided i would still keep a eye on it. Colored stool isn't always a sign of problems, it really is based on your diet and what you eat. But if there is pain and consistentsy with itr then you should definitley consult a doctor.
Avatar n tn Thx for the response. I called today. They said since I haven't eaten anything different it's bile and to give it over the weekend and if not corrected to call back. Now I'm researching and wondering about the too much bile issue. . .
Avatar f tn I am in my early fifties and for the first time ever I have noticed that my stool has been a forest green for the past week. I take no medications, have a balanced diet, probably at least a 50/50 ratio poultry/fish to veggies and am post menaposal. I feel fine, no discomfort or abdominal pain.
Avatar n tn Bile that is secreted in the first part of the small intestine is actually green. As stool is digested and passed through the large intestine it is turned into a darker brown color. If stool is still green by the time it is excreted, it could mean that it went through the large intestine too fast to be changed in color. This is often called "rapid transit" or "decreased colonic transit time" and diarrhea that is green in color could be the result.
Avatar n tn Why is my stool green? I will be 50 years old shortly. I am on no medications and have no health problems that I am aware of. Periodically, (like once last year & then a couple of times this month) my stool is grass green, usual normal consistency, & stays that way for a few days. What would cause this?
Avatar f tn Second we usually think of healthy stool being brown but stool is actually green before its brown due to bile being in the small intestine and as the green stool passes thru the large intestine over time it turns Brown. So If your stool was green ir could mean that it just passed thru the intestine too quickly for it to turn Brown. Its happend to me many many times. Hope that answers your question!
Avatar n tn Its the purple chips I tell u, I ate like a pound of purple chips at moe's and had green stool for about a week, ya a hole week of green stools, with mild cramping. They should put a warning sign upin front saying "PURPLE CHIPS WILL GIVE YOU GREEN POOP" This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/234200'>Green stool</a>.
Avatar f tn Hey im 32 weeks and my stool is bright green but i havin ate anythin green what could tat mean??
Avatar n tn If that green color was from bile, you'd probably feel some anal burning during bm.

Avatar m tn i have had my stool be green for the past 4 days now its a solid stool shpuld i be conserned
1418362 tn?1282203044 Several observations: The diarrhea from the amoxicillin can be a colon infection called C.Diff. enteritis...i would stop the amoxicillin and call your doctor. secondly, amoxicillin doesn't worsen a fungal sinusitis but it also doesn't treat it. You may need to see and ENT doctor.
Avatar m tn I had her remove it and then just touched her breasts and hand with my penis until I ejaculated. Afterwards I washed with a wash cloth and went home and showered. I also took 250mg of amoxicillin I had from a previous case of bronchitis hoping maybe that would do something if there was an exposure. Since then I've had loose stool that has been green / yellow and tingling throughout my penis. What are my risks of contracting and std?
