Have Sore Throat, Diarrhea. Recovered From Strep A. Help?
My five year old recovered from strep A without antibiotics because the culture test took five days. He has no sore throat , good energy, no headache , and no fever. He has been clear of symptoms for five days, but now he has diahrea. Could this be related to the strep? He also had diahrea for a week before he got the strep but then it disappeared.

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Whether diarrhea is related to sore throat or not , it is not possible to say something, without any complete history.
If semisolid stool is there that too 4-5 times need not to worry, no treatment necessary.
If watery diarrhea is there then get treatment from physician .
Water with sugar, salt will help.
Plenty of water with juice are good for child.
Good luck.
Dr. HET
