A member asked:
Is it normal for toddlers not to eat pretty much any solid food but just milk for 3 to 4 days during sore throat, cold, diarhea etc?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, that can: happen. If the child hasn't seen a doctor at this point in the illness, I would recommend you take him/her to see if there is anything that can be treated. The milk may exacerbate the diarrhea, but if not, it's a decent source of fluids. Keep trying, though, to give some solids for a little more nutrition.
