Yes, alkaline reaction in stool can be normal, especially with vegetarian diets. It may also occur due to infection or poor digestion. Not alarming alone unless symptoms are present.

Dr. Kamran Suggests...

Take a STOOL EXAMINATION, PH & REDUCING SUBSTANCES Test or Take a KFT with Electrolytes (Kidney Funtion) Test

I had vomiting and loose motion so my doctor said I have a stomach infection and advised me to get blood and urine reports. I am also having regular back pain and my mouth has a sour taste. I have attached my reports.

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.

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.
