What Causes Diarrhea,stomach Bloating And Abdominal Cramping?
Brief Answer:
antispasmodic,anti secretary drugs.ORS.needs infor
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I went through the query and understood your concern.
Diarrhea can be due to infection or functional or due to any insult to gastrointestinal tract. In your case there is no fever or any inflammatory signs. So chance of infection is less.
Since lower abdominal cramping is present, I want to know whether it is present through out the day or only before the episode of diarrhoea, what is the frequency of diarrhoea per day, is it associated with pus or blood or is it foul smelling. These information helps us to discuss better.
For now you should have good hydration better with oral rehydration solution or with electrol powder to prevent dehydration or any electrolytes imbalance. Antispasmodic drugs like dicyclomine may help to reduce cramping pain and anti secretory drugs like racecodotril will help in reducing the frequency of diarrhoea.
I hope this information helps you. I will be waiting for more information..
Feel free to ask for any further queries. I will be glad to answer them.
Wish you good health and faster recovery.
Regards

Hi,
The tiredness and clamy skin may be due to diarrhoea which has caused dehydration. With nutritious food, plenty of oral fluids (better oral rehydration solution) these symptoms will disappear.
