Hello. The doctor would like to answer the question: Is it okay to have greasy stools when taking medicine to treat the stomach? as follows:
There is scum in the stool, the child should have a stool test and stool smear to determine if there is another cause. Besides, you should review your diet, should not eat too much fat, need to eat a lot of fiber and drink enough water.
