How To Treat A Yellow Runny Diarrhea In An Child?
my 2 year old has had yellow runny diarrhea for the past two days and just threw up last night. He hasn t wanted to each much the last few days. And now this morning his runny stool had little black specs like pepper in it. He has had no fever. Does he have just a stomach bug? What are the black specs?

Hi.,.you need not worry unless the kid is having low urine output or blood in stools or green colored vomiting or distended abdomen.
Black specs could be the remnants of previously ingested food... But if the kid us active and playing around... You need not worry.
