Child Have Diarrhea. No Medication Till Now. What Can Be The Problem?
My 4 yr old daughter has been having diarrhea for about 2 weeks now. In between going to the bathroom she doesn't seem sick, but when she goes it's totally watery. These past couple of days I have noticed that it is now clay colored. I can't imagine why. She doesn't take any kind of medication. Hepatitis? Gall bladder? She has been super whiny, but I thought that was just the age. No fever or other symptoms. Some complaints of belly pain right before going to the bathroom. Any thoughts?

Hi,
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
Clay colored stool should be investigated.
Are the eyes yellow in color?
Does she have reduced appetite?
Is there any pain on the right side of the abdomen?
Is there any associated vomiting?
Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
