Hello,
Thanks for choosing HelthcareMagic for your query.
As per your query most likely you are having gastroenteritis.
Gastroenteritis is inflammation of gastric mucosa.Most commonly its viral.Viral gastroenteritis usually limits itself in 7-10 days,Initially i would advice you to go for stool routine and microscopy test to rule out to rule out Bacterial or Protozoal infection.As therapy with antibiotic has to be taken if its bacterial or protozoal enteritis.
Start taking Imodium 2mg thrice), I would suggest you to take a probiotic twive daily.It repletes the disturbed gastric flora hence making digestion better.
Apart from that isaphghullu husk(Metamucil) should be taken twice daily.It will increase bulk of stool and bowels normal.
An antispasmodic like dicyclomine can be taken to decrease the frequency and OTC anti antiemetic like Zofran 4 mg can be taken thrice daily to control nausea and vomiting.
All are OTC.

Eat light and easily digestible food.

Try boiled food(Vegetables) with spices and herbs for a week.
Drink plenty of orange juice and coconut water.
keep yourself hydrated.
