Hello
Thanks for writing to XXXXXXX
I can understand that your kid has smelly curdy stools, which can be a feature or malabsorption/lactose intolerance.
Get stool routine done along with stool for reducing substances.
Also, deworm him every six months.
Do consult a pediatrician with these reports and have him fully examined for vitamin/mineral deficiencies.
If appropriately treated I am sure your kid will get rid of his problem.
Wishing your kid good health.
Regards,
Dr Arun
