It is rarely to have C. diff infection with just one course of antibiotic(s) for ear infection but if you have loose stool several times a day and daily, stool test for C. diff toxin should be done. However, if the diarrhea is not frequent and daily, your gut is probably sensitive with antibiotic(s) so your bowel movement should be normalized soon and I am not sure if probiotic is necessary.
