My daughter is 16 months and every few months she gets diarrhea so bad is burns her bottom. The diarrhea is yellow is color kinda looks like dijon mustard, very sour in smell it can be smelled through the house. It usually lasts about a week. It tends to flare up when she is cutting teeth. What are the chances it is something other than teething? is there anything I can do to soothe her? or speed up her recovery?
