Hi Dear
Welcome to the HCM,
White gum like loose stool represent bacterial infection especially bacillary dysentery.
Requires proper treatment by antibacterial like ofloxacin etc.
Stool culture will guide us to give the exact required antibiotic to eradicate the infection .
Take care of the hydration with ORS ,dal rice water etc in required amount.
Hope the query is answered.
thanks.
