Hi...thanks for consulting at HCM. It seems your kid is having acute watery diarrhea. 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. Antibiotics might worsen if unnecessarily used causing antibiotic associated diarrhea. I suggest you use zinc supplements & ORS...hope my answer was helpful for you. Happy to help anytime. Feel free to consult at HCM whenever needed.
