You can do the symptom Attic management for that with lots of water to maintain hydration and which are said like powder can be taken with water to maintain the electrolyte balance. You have to avoid excessive spicy food and semi solid foods can be taken.
I will suggest you to investigate with the stool routine microscopic analysis to check any pus cells or Bacteria is present. Probiotic tablet can be prescribed in the diarrhoea.
