Suggest Treatment For Diarrhea , Stomach Cramps And Abdominal Pain

So my boyfriend and I got bad diarrhea and stomach aches and stomach cramps the exact same time, lasted 2 days, he feels better no more diarrhea. 4 days later I still have diarrhea, NO more stomach cramps but my stomach keeps growling but I don t feel hungry. Diarrhea is not getting better or going away. The constant grumbling is worrying me because I googled tapeworm and now think like I have them.....

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your boyfriend have symptoms of diarrhea , stomach cramps and abdominal pain which seems to be due to disturbance of electrolytic balance of body. It could be due to food intolerance, bacterial or viral infection, parasitic infection, food allergy or inflammatory bowel disease. Need not to worry. You should take plenty of fluids. Avoid intake of outside and hot, sharp and spicy food. I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics like ornidazole , albendazole , omeprazole along with loperamide. You should eat light and non spicy , eat fresh fruits and vegetables and eat fruits like banana. Take oral rehydrating solution as well.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
