Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Acute gastroentertis is mostly viral in nature and settles in few days.
Continue with oral rehydration solution sip by sip after each loose stool.
Give lemonade,curd,rice porridge,boiled potato,banana.
Give acetaminophen if fever is above 100F.
In case sympyoms persist get him evaluated by pediatrician.
Hope this helps.
Take care..
