Hi
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
Diarrhea is usually viral and may last for 5 days.
Teething may be coincidental as kids put everything in mouth which causes viral infection during teething
Give ors and zinc.
Ensure minimum 6 times urine output in a day.
Try avoiding dairy products to see if that helps.
Wishing your child good health

Dr Arun
