Hello Sir/Madam. My daughter stool test report came (we got it done as her stool had mucus and white flakes). I just want to know if the reports are okay? By the way, she is generally fine and gaining weight normally.

Intermittent mucus/flakes can occur with mild infections or dietary issues. If child is otherwise active and gaining weight, no major concern. Repeat if symptoms persist.

Take a STOOL EXAMINATION, PH & REDUCING SUBSTANCES Test or Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test

My occult blood report is not detected, but there is blood in my stool in physical examination. Is it a cause of concern?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My 4 month old baby has been experiencing constant vomiting for the past month. We recently got a blood test done, and the CRP level came back as 18 mcg per ml. I am concerned about what this means and what could be causing the vomiting.

I have been experiencing abdominal pain and diarrhea for the past 2 days. My stool test shows infection with Giardia lamblia. My doctor prescribed Ornidazole 500 mg, 2 tablets per day for 5 days. I would like to know whether Metronidazole is more effective than Ornidazole, or if Ornidazole alone is sufficient for treating this infection.
