Hi soni,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum,
This sounds like a viral diarrhea. And best thing is it seems to be getting better. You just need to manage him symptomatically with good hydration, he will get better in a day or 2. Rash free is good for the perianal area. Keep it as dry as you can.
Hope your child gets well soon.
