Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
E. coli can affect your belly by spreading through blood. You will feel feverish and also a pain in the stomach along with that you cannot feel good.
You take Ofloxacin twice a day for five days, Pantoprazole twice a day for five days and also take Paracetamol 2 times a day for five days.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Purva Patel
