My son aged 2 and a half years started having diarrhea earlier today. He has had three episodes of greenish yellow frothy foul smelling watery diarrhea. We have not traveled anywhere from where we stay(Gaborone Botswana) but we have had a few other children come to the house
If it due to viral cause acute watery diarrhea, only need rice based oral saline, oral zinc. If it is bacterial, need antibiotic like Cipro or azithromycin, if protozoal, need metronidazole or nitazoxanide, ORS and zinc with green banana mixed rice.
