Brief Answer:
Sounds like an intestinal bug!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

I have reviewed your info fully and this calls to mind the possibility of a viral bug in the intestines causing this diarrhea. I will suggest that you continue with rehydration and tylenol only. This should be enough. However, I will recommend a stool exam if this diarrhea and fever goes beyond three days again. Diarrhea would normally not go beyond 7days if caused by a virus only. Also, keep me updated should any other symptom like abdominal pain, repeated vomiting, etc. sets in.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be.
