Need more history to label it as diarrhea such as frequency, consistency each time, amount, age of child, feeding habbit. Single such type of stool is not labelled as diarrhea

Doesn't look like diarrhea. We define diarrhea by more than 3 loose watery stools in a day. semisolid stool is nothing to worry about

Hi, More detailed history required How old is the child? Just with picture can’t comment on diarrhoea. Diarrhoea is watery stool more than thrice daily in older children and thrice more than usual in infants and babies.
