Hi
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
Diarrhea is usually viral and may last for 5 days.
Give ors and zinc.
Ensure minimum 6 times urine output in a day.
Hopefully salmonella should be negative.
Even if it is positive it can be treated easily
Dont worry
Wishing your child good health

Dr Arun
