pale clay coloured runny poo in 6 year old

[sunnyfriday]

DC (6) has had very pale, soft & foul smelling runny poos for about 10 days. Not diarrhea though I think (he only goes to the toilet every other day - do certainly not the runs)..

No other symptoms at all. loads of appetite and the usual self. No temperature either. Wee is normal.

Would you consult GP about it? What could it be?

Probably nothing to worry about because various things could be causing it (Presumably you will have ruled out any different foods or medication) but I would see a GP if I was you just because it has gone on for a while. Good luck.

Some children get temporary lactose intolerance after an infection, which can lead to pale smelly poo. My nephew has had it a couple of times. Does your DS have a lot of milk/dairy?

It's probably worth a quick trip to the doctor since it's been going on a while.
