Suggest Remedy For Loose Motions

My son is 6 months old and recently started solid foods. His stool went from loose to mushy and hard, and he d usually have 3 bm/day. But as of last Saturday, my son s bm are very frequent and loose. The color was first yellowish/mustard like and now it changed to greenish, and it s even more frequent (with every feeding). On Saturday, we introduced apple puree and i thought that maybe it was just a reaction to it. So, as of Sunday he is only having rice cereal 1/day and the rest of the time I breast feed, but that did not make a difference. His bms became more frequent and color did change as well.Should I be concerned? There are no other symptoms (no fever, no changes in his behavior, sleeping_

Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hello,

It seems your kid is having viral diarrhoea. Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting. You need not worry.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
