hi.
Pain in the stomach and the frequent motions are suggestive of gastroenteritis . You have to take a course of an antibiotic and metronidazole and supportive treatment.
IF there is no relief within a few days I wold advise the following:
Blood- complete blood picture, kidney functions tests, blood sugar fasting and post-lunch,
Urine- routine,microscopy, culture and sensitivity ( before start of antibiotic)
Ultrasonography of abdomen.
If required a colonoscopy too is also warranted .
Your Doctor will add medicines to tackle the problem of acidity too.
Go for upper GI Endoscopy once at least for this .
I find this answer helpful
