My son is just recovering from a hand foot a mouth virus and now he has bad diarrhea. can there be something wrong?

Diarrhea after virus: Yes there is something causing the diarrhea. Did your son receive any antibiotic for the infection or taking any medicine? It is very important to keep him well hydrated with fluids to replace what he is loosing with the diarrhea, and i give two tablespoonfuls of probiotic yogurt eg live culture yogurt 3 times per day. Report the diarrhea condition to your pediatrician for advice on what to do.
