What Causes Belly Button Pain, Dry Cough, Diarrhea And Nausea?
8 days ago I got totally weak and nauseous. I was sleeping for 22 hours a days,only eating saltines. When I did eat soup 2 times I got diarrhea. My dr Friday thought pancreatise because of pain above my belly button. He gave me nausea mess. Yesterday I had diarrhea again. This morning my left side of belly button hurts a lot. And I have a deep dry cough, that really hurts. No fever this whole time. No cold like stymtoms: sore tonsils, runny nose
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have belly button pain, dry cough, diarrhea and nausea which is due to compromised immunity of your body. It seems that you have developed chest infection/ chronic upper respiratory tract infection. The symptoms can also occur due to gastritis , acid reflux or IBS. I would suggest you to do warm saline gargles. You should take cough expectorants. You should take antibiotic Levofloxacin in combination with antiallergic medication. Continue with your antimalarial drugs as well. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should get chest X-ray done and start treatment after proper diagnosis have been made. Avoid oily and sharp food. Drink plenty of fluids. Doctor may also refer you to gastroenterologist for gastric problem .Eat 1-2 banana per day and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
