Question 1

I was using whey protein, which did not suit me and caused loose stools and two bowel movements per day. I continued using it, thinking my body would adjust, and took it for one month with milk, water, and curd. As a result, I started getting black loose stools. A stool test showed +fiber, +undigested food, and negative for mucus, blood, and infection. I stopped the whey protein and switched back to a normal diet, but the condition did not improve. It has been almost seven months, and now I am getting yellow loose stools. Sometimes the stool is normal, but other times it starts hard and ends loose. Doctors have told me that I have weak intestines. I have also lost weight; previously I weighed 63 kg, and now I weigh 58 kg.

Question 2

Hi sir or madam, for the last 3 months, my baby motions are watery, sometimes semi solid, and sometimes semi solid with mucus. It happens daily up to 8 times. I have attached the report in this mail. Please share what kind of problem this could be. The doctor told us to stop breastfeeding. Is this correct? What should I do? My baby is 6 months old.

Question 3

My baby is 10 months old. Ascaris lumbricoides was seen in her stool test report. Please tell me what this is and what the treatment for this worm is? My doctor has suggested that, since she is only 10 months old, we cannot give any medicine until she turns 1 year. Please advise.

Hi doctor I am experiencing mild stomach pain and feel the need to poop after every meal. I have also attached my blood report for your review.
