Hello dear, Don't be panic just relax.
Diarrhoea is one of the manifestation of Corona virus disease but not the typical symptom. we can't say at initial period that it is because of Corona. so for this you just start some symptomatic treatment for other common causes of diarrhoea and meanwhile assess for other symptoms like high grade fever, bodyaches, cough then you may go for COVID test

Diarrhoea is not very common in COVID 19, you dont need to worry unless she develops fever or respiratory problems. Better to self isolate.

For diarrhoea use Enterogermina sachet once daily for 2 days.
Take plenty of fluids and keep hydrated.
