Brief Answer:
Looks like starting stage of viral diarrhea
Detailed Answer:
Hi...this looks like a prodrome (starting stage) of viral diarrhea. Initially it will start with vomiting and then diarrhea follows. Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry.
If there is vomiting you can use Syrup Ondansetron as prescribed by your pediatrician as it is prescription drug.
If diarrhea starts, then, I suggest you use zinc supplements (Z&D drops 1ml once daily for 14 days) & ORS (Each small packet mixed in 200ml of potable water and keep giving sip by sip) as hydration is very important and crucial part of treatment. If there is vomiting you can use Syrup Ondansetron as prescribed by your pediatrician.
Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
