My 21 month old daughter woke up vomiting yesterday morning for about 4 hours, than seemed perfectly fine. She went to sleep and all night was burping rotten egg smell in her sleep. This morning she has had 4 bouts of super watery foul smelling diarrhea. What could this be?
Hi... Thank you for consulting in Chat Doctor. It seems your kid is having viral diarrhea. Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better.

There is no need to use antibiotics unless there is blood in the motion. Antibiotics might worsen if unnecessarily used causing antibiotic associated diarrhea. I suggest you use zinc supplements (Z&D Chat Doctor.
