What Causes Recurring Diarrhea To A 3 Year Old?
My 3 and a half year old son is having a morning diarrhea, just one during the whole day, the only thing he eats at night is a full glass of milk, he does not have any other problem, no fever, no stomach ache, eating is good, he eats normal, what may be his problem? It has been 8 days now since it started. Thanks

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day
Having one soft bowel movement everyday does not mean diarrhea.
Every child is unique and have their own bowel frequency. In the absence of any other complaints there is no cause for concern.
Giving him curds/yoghurt will be helpful.
Do get back to me for further queries
Take Care
