Hi,
These all symptoms could be due to dyspepsia,gastroenteritis,IBS or inflammatory bowel disease,etc.
You should undergo certain blood investigations with urine and stool examination for R/M and ova or ultrasound of abdomen.
Treatment is mainly depend on the underlying cause but symptomatic treatment can be given.
You may require antibiotics (quinolones, antiprotozoals or amoxycillin derivatives) and anti helminthic (albendazole) with proton pump inhibitors and prebiotics,probiotics and digestive enzymes with only liquid diet for couple of days.
You must consult your gastroenterologist for detailed medical history and thoroughly clinical examination and get it diagnosed first.
Thanks.
