Hi, and thanks for your question. That could be a normal finding in case of diarrhea and will resolve once the underlying cause is cured. To speed up recovery I would recommend to use antibiotics and bland diet based on boiled chicken and rice. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
