hi, i am a mother of a 6 months old baby boy, he started to have his lbm last monday. today he experienced 6x of bowel movement, i am worried so i decided to test his stool and the result is like this no ova or parasite seen, fat globules-many, what is the meaning of fat globules in the stool of a 6 months old baby? thaks
Fat globules are suggestive of malabsorption. What's the source of milk being used for the child. Is it age appropriate? Did he have diarrhea a couple of weeks before this episode? Is the child being weaned? In any case, do seek attention of your children doctor.
