Hello and welcome.

Probiotics and an oral rehydration solution will help to prevent the child from getting dehydrated which is really important at this point in time. But if your child is continuing to have diarrhea and is not consuming any liquids then it is indeed important for you to visit a doctor and possibly even get your child admitted for intra-venous fluid administration.

Best wishes.
