A week of diarrhoea that started with a fever and viral illness often means your gut is still recovering even after the infection itself has cleared. This post-infectious phase, sometimes with a temporary intolerance to certain foods, is common and usually settles over two to three weeks as the gut lining heals.
Next Steps
Keep going with bland food like khichdi, banana and plain rice, and reintroduce other food slowly over the next week. Avoid spicy and oily meals for now, and continue ORS through the day. A probiotic can help speed up recovery.
Health Tips
See a general physician for a stool test if this hasn't settled in another week, or sooner if you get fever, blood in the stool or can't keep fluids down.
