When to Seek Medical Care for Diarrhea

While diarrhea is usually not serious and often resolves on its own, it's important to seek medical attention if it persists for more than a few days or is accompanied by other severe symptoms, such as abdominal pain, fever, or signs of dehydration.

If you are a parent, it is important to note that if your child has diarrhea and is showing symptoms like a high fever, bloody stools, prolonged vomiting, or dehydration, it's time to bring them in for pediatric urgent care in Allen, Coppell, Frisco, McKinney, North Richland Hills, or Prosper.

If your child is having diarrhea that lasts for longer than 24 hours, then seek prompt treatment at one of our locations. At Legacy ER & Urgent Care, we understand the unique needs of our youngest patients. Our compassionate, experienced pediatric providers are available to provide top-tier care for your child in a calm and comforting environment.
