[|AI|]  Hi...1. Mesenteric Lymphadenitis is a self limiting condition and requires only symptomatic treatment like Paracetamol.2. Enterogermina is not an antibiotic - it is a probiotic, and it is given only in antibiotic associated diarrhea.3. Enterogermina doesn't cure diarrhea.4. It seems your kid is having viral diarrhea. Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. Unless the kids having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry. 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.
