Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to Healthcaremagic
Greetings of the day

Dear Sir

Going by your description it is Acute Gastroenteritis (Food poisoning )

If the following criteria are fulfilled there is no cause for concern

1. Absence of blood in loose stools
2. Absence of distension of abdomen


I would suggest you the following

1 Ensure Good intake of Oral Rehydration solution : It will prevent dehydration and electrolyte disturbance due to loss in stools

2. Probiotic

3. Antispasmodic will help relieve abdominal pain

4. Antacid


Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.


Wishing you speedy recovery


Take care

Best regards
Dr Deepak Kaltari
