What Causes Stools To Be Creamy Yellow After Treatment For Diarrhea?
2 yr old boy had severe diarrhea Monday aft/eve with some vomitting. Dr. suggested may be viral so keep him hydrated and feed him starchy foods. No milk or fruit juices. We ve fed him pasta, yogurt, diluted Gatorade, crackers etc. Vomitting is gone by late last eve and this morning his stool is creamy yellow. Is this normal or should we be concerned? Also, his appetite has diminished.

Hi..this is normal in recovering diarrhea. Do not worry. It seems your kid is having viral diarrhoea. Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. 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.
