Hi...

Welcome to healthcare magic.

As you mentioned you have problem of abdominal cramps and diarrhea that may be because of gastroenteritis or giardiasis infection or other reasons.

Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis.
Detail history and investigation give exact idea about problems.
Stool sample test is helpful for further diagnosis.
Treat underling cause.
Probiotic is helpful.
If infection is present than start proper antibiotics under doctor's suggestion.

I hope this will help you.
Get well soon..
Thank you.
