Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history about your 3 month old son having green sticky stools after every feed, very water. Given Walamycin and Econorm ...
This is definitely an infection but too early to come in a baby of just 3 month old.
This looks to be due to infection being transmitted through the nipples of mother or the bottle is being used.
You have to sterilize all the utensils related to the mild thoroughly. If breast fed, use spirit to clean the nipple 5 minutes before feed.
Send the sample of stool for lab to get an appropriate tests and may be culture sensitivity.
Continue the medicines as advised by your Pediatrician.
