My baby girl 2 n half yrs old and she diagnosed in urine culture report ecoli.entamoeba coli, how baby got infection, through water or food?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Entamoeba coli: Entamoeba coli is a non-pathogenic species of ameba that may live in the human gastrointestinal tract. E. Coli (not to be confused with the bacteria escherichia coli). If the e.Coli was from urine culture it was escherichia and may have been causing infection (or not), would need much more information. Good luck.
