What Causes Green Loose Stools?

Hi i am a 46 year old male 6'1",230lbs.I have been feel bad for about a month now severe low backpain
it feels like something is burning inside it burn when I urinate I feel sick in my stomach all the time and now for the past three days i have had green diarrhea at least three times a day.I have been to the ER twice they have done CT Scan and blood work to see if I had Kidney Stone and did not find any. They said it was prostatitis.They gave me Cipro and Vicodin. I was wondering if the green diarrhea was a sign I was getting worse and what I need to do.

HI
Well come
Thank for asking
I really appreciate your concern, green color stool could be due to less food intake I would suggest to eat well, beside this it could be due to viral infection, biliary disease, I actually advise for Lactobacillus (Probiotic) only matter of concern is biliary disease and it needs to be ruled else it is nothing to worry, PPI (Proton pump can also be tried ) like Tab Omeprazole 40 mg once in day for three weeks hope this information helps.
