3 yr old with mucus and blood in stool

[badavis]

I have a 3 yr old son who has had diarrhea for the past 4 days. At first it was yellow and he had stomach cramping and abdominal pain that came and went night and day. Now he has mucus and blood in his stool. We are currently collecting stool samples for the doctor however I was wondering if this is some time of virus that anyone else has experienced with their child.

I havent heard of one but its possible he has one from food have you been able to pinpoint what he ate prior to theStomach pain at least a few hours before, sounds food related,make sure he is getting some water so he is not De Hydrating, Has there been any unusual event recently .
