What Can Cause Black Stools With Cough,cold And Fever In Kids?
my 15 month old has had a persistant cough/cold/fever for a week which is a reoccurance from last month, what s different this time is his poo is black, we however have been giving him the minute maid pomegranate blueberry enhanced juice. Could that be the reason for the color change in his stool?

Hi...yes this could be the reason for the black colored stool. Nothing to worry about it. Sometimes the natural color of the foods can reflect in stools and urine.
This can happen if the kid is n iron supplements also.
