HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern such diarrhea could be self limiting only thing is that it has to be taken car for dehydration if the symptoms persist for more than couple of days then it may requires the treatment and here it could be infection and for that the child can be given Metronidazole 200mg twice in day for four days and hope this information helps.
