Hello,

I can understand your concern. Green stools along with pus cells in stool test indicates presence of bacterial infection. It is common for children to get stomach infections. As far as he is in hospital and being treated by doctors with antibiotics and is hydrated, you should not worry about his health. It might take a week to 10 days for your son to completely recover from all the symptoms and gain back strength.

I hope this answer helps you. Thank you for choosing HCM. Let me know if you have follow up questions.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
