Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of diarrhea which seems to be due to acute gastroenteritis which seems to be due to viral infection and electrolyte imbalance in body. It could be due to food intolerance and poor digestion.

Need not to worry. Drink plenty of fluids to rehydrate. You should take banana on daily basis and light food. Avoid giving any sharp and spicy food. I would suggest you not to panic at all. You should start treatment with combination of fluoroquinolones and ornidazole.

Visit gastroenterologist once and get it examined. You should go for blood tests as well and start treatment after proper examination. You should take Ibuprofen along with proton pump inhibitors as well. You should take antiemetic like domperidone and ranitidine for gastritis.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
