Diarrhea in a toddler Doctor or no? Two yrs old. People experienced with children please.?
The child is having diarrhea times four days. She is eating and drinking well. No fever or vomiting.
Probably a virus. But I don't know for sure.
If it is a virus all the doctor would do is hydrate her. She is not dehydrated. Poop was a little better this morning.
What would you do ? Wait another day or go to doctor today? And yes I know a doctor is the best option. But do you think one is necessary?
. Thanks
Thanks : Not any symptoms of Dysentary except diarrhea.

The only concern with diarrhea is dehydration. If she is drinking plenty of fluids she is fine, maybe some pedialyte to help absorb more fluid would help. Just to be safe I would take her to see the pediatrician

I usually wait three days to see if the stool hardens. So yes, I would recommend going to the doctor today.
On a good note, it's great that she is eating and drinking well.

Might be dysentery, I would suggest having her see a physician to be sure.
