I was traveling in China and started having diareha, a bit of bloating and nausea, had only rice for a few days got better but the symptoms and diareha came back, I took some acidophilus high dosage tablets for a few days and the diareha stopped but still have some cramps, loose bowels, and some of the same symptoms, no vomiting.

Hi. while travelling it is common to acquire food and water borne infections and have gastoenteritis.
Although your symptoms have reduced but persisting i would advise you to,

1. Take a course of antibiotics which include ornidazole with ofloxacin,
2. ORS sachets if you continue to have diarrhea,
3. have stool examination if diarrhea persists even after course of antibiotics.
