What Causes Dark Green Stool?

Hi, Doctor. My baby has a dark green stool color after she received DTap/DT/DTP/Td/Tdap, Hib, Pneumococcal Conjugate, IPv/OPV, Rotavirus vaccine 7 days ago. Is it a normal stool after she had these shots or anything wrong with her stool? Thank you for your answer.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, green color stool is fairly common phenomenon in pediatric age group and this is kind of reactive phenomenon and this could happen in viral infection, vaccination is kind of viral particle that could induce such green color diarrhea, but this is nothing to worry, this comes around without medicine, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
