Brief Answer:
Looks like Stomach infection.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to HealthcareMagic. I am Dr Anshul Varshney for your help.

He seems to have developed stomach infection.

I would recommend following in such cases :
1. A combination of antibiotic-containing Ofloxacin and Ornidazole twice a day for 5 days (please obtain the appropriate prescription from your local physician).

2. A combination of Pantoprazole and Domperidone (40/30)mg once daily.

3. A probiotic like Vizylac twice daily for 5 days.

Make sure he is not having any chest heaviness or pain. If he has doubt get an ECG done.

Make him drink plenty of oral fluids.

Give simple diet like khichdi and yogurt for the time being along with fresh fruits.

I hope it helps you.
If you have any further query please ask me.
Regards
