HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

The change in the color of stool may be linked to the change in milk but if they remain pale then he should see his doctor for an assessment so that other causes can be ruled out.

He would need an examination of the abdomen, stool may need to be sent to the lab.
Depending on the findings, further testing may or may not be needed to assess general function and the liver function.

I hope this helps
