Could be: The low grade fever and diarrhea may be a sign of a viral gastrointestinal infection. Maintain your fluid intake, eat yogurt, take OTC antidiarrheals like Kaopectate (kaolin and pectin) or peptobismol and ride it out. It should resolve soon. If your fever goes above 101 or you see blood in your BM, consult your primary care. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
