Does Staph Infection Or Antibiotics Cause White Particles In Stool?

hi,my 9 year old son has a skin staph infection on his fingers. He started taking anitbiotics last night and this morning has severe stomach pain. Today we went back to the doctor and said he was constipated so he took a laxative. He just had diarrhea and saw some white seed looking spots in his stool; should i be concered or is this normal with staph or antibiotics?
