Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Continue what the doctor has prescribed.
Add curd rice or rice with buttermilk to the diet.
Probably he may not be able to digest egg during diarrhea.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose.
Give plenty of fluids like buttermilk, rice kanjee and ORS solution.
As long as he is passing urine normally, nothing to worry.
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
