HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the symptoms could be suggestive of bacillary dysentery just wait for few days because it may be self limiting one but it need to be taken care for other symptoms like fever, vomiting, abdomen pain, fatigue and if it looks like that then it need to be taken for pediatric opinion, else it can be managed with Metronidazole orally according to weight 5 mg per kg body divided in two dosages hope this information helps.
