Brief Answer:
Might be suffering with food poisoning

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the query.

As he had food outside and now he is suffering with stomach ache and loose motions, I feel that he might be suffering with Acute gastroenteritis(Food poisoning).

Here his treatment depends upon the frequency, consistency and type of organism. One tablet of O2 is not enough and he needs to take a whole course of antibiotics. Usually Tab. Norflox - TZ is prescribed for such cases and even after this course if the symptoms do not improve then a stool microscopic examination and culture and sensitivity is done to determine the type of organism infecting and the drug it is most sensitive to.

It would be better to see a local physician for examination and prescription of medicines.

Meanwhile ask him to follow these measures:
1. To drink plenty of water. Min of 3 to 4 ltrs/day along with fruit juices. Intention here is to prevent dehydration.
2. Electral powder: A XXXXXXX of electral powder to be mixed with the mentioned amount of water on the pack and to drink as and when required and after every time he passes stools.
3. Avoid spicy and oily food.
4. Give him only soft and easily digestible food like idly, upma, curd rice etc.

Hope this answers your query. If any further clarifications, will be happy to help you.

Regards.
