My son 2 years, has had diarrhea the last two day and this morning woke with a slight fever at 37.3 could it just be a bug from something he ate and how should we treat him?

Probably viral: A probiotic may be helpful. Watch for signs of blood and mucus in the stool. Provide clear fluids, avoid dairy products until well. Bananas and rice will promote normal stool pattern. Please see your pediatrician for signs of dehydration including fewer wet diapers, dry mouth and no tears.
