Hi
our child had an episode of gastroenteritis which is mostly viral in nature and settles in few days . Since its recurrent I would suggest giving antibiotic like Azithromycin and metronidazole for 3 days along with an antispasmodic .Start a probiotic. Give plenty of fluids. Give lemonade,curd,rice porridge,banana. Repeated hand washing should be encouraged and NO to all junk food items.Stool microscopy test should be done. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can help further.
Thanks
