What Causes White Colored Stool With Traces Of Blood In It?

Hi, my 17 month old son has always suffered of constipation, we have tried everything to help that. For the last 2 weeks he has had constant diarrhoea, but as of yesterday it was finally firmer but it had white popcorn looking stools amongst the normal stool there was also a bit of blood. Have you got any ideas?

Hi,
Thanks and welcome to healthcare magic.
Diarrhea for 2 weeks leads to fatty indigestion and lactose indigestion.
This leads to whitish motion.
Once the diarrhea is controlled, the color will gradually return.
Hope this answer serves your purpose .
Please feel free to ask further queries if any.
