HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such diarrhea in this age with orthopedic injury could be due to bacterial infection and great care needs to be taken for dehydration and if it develops the electrolyte imbalance then it requires the correction here in this case chances of bacterial infection is very likely and it may needed antibiotic like Sulfamethaxazole and Trimethoprim either oral or parenteral therapy hope this information helps.
