Pediatrician,  's  Response
Thanks for putting up your query at HealthCareMagic. Your son is probably suffering from a bacterial gastrointestinal infection. Your paediatrician has diagnosed it correctly and is treating it in the right line. So you may rest assured. It might continue for another few days before it stops. Continue giving him ORS which is very important in order to ascertain that he does not lose salt and water. Continue giving him gramogyl (metronidazole + norfloxacin). No need to give amaxin as you are already giving him gramogyl. Your doctor has correctly pointed out about the epithelial tissue damage. If I had a patient like him, I would have asked to add Syrup Zinconia 7.5 ml twice daily for 5 days. It is important for epithelial regeneration.

I hope that helps. Feel free to revert back with further queries if any.
