A member asked:

Can my 2 yr old get c diff? my son had drinks given to him by his sickg-pa despite saying not to, found out gpa has c diff, now my son has signs of it

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes, but don't worry: Yes your son can get c. Diff, but most children in daycare have the antigen for it. If you son has diarrhea, there may be other reasons for it. Consider starting your son on probiotics (can get them from your pharmacist). This may shorten diarrhea symptoms. If he is not better within in 2 weeks or shows signs of dehydration, then have him evaluated.
