Your son is having watery diarrhoea.. give him oral rehydration solution (ORS) after each loose motion approximately 100ml to 150 ml hourly so that there is no deficiency of water in body... Also give him syrup zinc 5 ml daily for 14 days and give satchet sporolac.. twice a day.. Visit a pediatrician if child not improve...
