General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

It could be due to viral gastroenteritis.

Generally, it will settle by itself.

If the symptoms persist or in case of symptoms like fever or bloody stools, it is better to consult a pediatrician and get evaluated.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain,
