My 5 year old daughter has been complaining of stomach aches and loss of appetite for a few days, she just ended preschool so I thought it was nerves but yesterday i noticed her stool is the color of light clay and today it is still the same clay color but she has diarrhea. Should i be concerned. I cant get her into her doctor until tomorrow.
Hi, From symptoms it shows that she might be having jaundice mostly infective hepatitis. Passing clay color stool, loss of appetite, nausea, stomach pain are symptoms of jaundice. Consult your pediatrician and go for examination and investigations like Liver function test and urine test. Ok and take care.
