Suggest Treatment For Head Cold & Diarrhea

My 12 month old granddaughter has been sick with a headcold for a couple weeks now and just the past four days she has lost her appetite and has developed diaharreah. My daughter told me she gave her some wheat pasta to try the same day her diaharreah started. I noticed today my granddaughter s belly seems to be swollen. She is fussy and won t eat much at all but does drink some of her formula during the day although she is only consuming about half of her norm. We are concerned about the swollen belly. She does sleep good through the nights but she always has. During the day she is fussy. She is also teething and doesn t handle the teething well. Just concerned about her belly mostly.

Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
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.

Regards - Dr. Sumanth
