Detailed answer...
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have read your query and feel that there is nothing to worry regarding these few diarrheas.Since these are mild ones,there is no need to take any antibiotic as such.
Let these few diarrhoea continue as they are flushing the infection from your intestines.Just make sure that you are hydrated well by taking plenty of liquids like ORS,lemon water,coconut water etc.
You may take immodium in case you get 3-4 diarrhoea in quick succession.
You should be all right in next 24-48 hours.
I hope it helps however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
