How Can Diarrhea And Sharp Abdominal Pain Be Treated?
I have had diahrea overnight and have had a sharp pain when I sit down on toilet? Also the pain occurs when I get up and if I strain~just making sure the pain is still there~? ugh. I m 76 and very active, but have 4 bad discs in lower back. Also, I was in Atlanta this past weekend at a volleyball tournament and three days of walking miles and miles has kinda taken its toll on me? Can you help? Thanx!!!
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Based on your description, it appears that you are having infection of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT).
Kindly do the following to overcome it. • Take a course of oral antibiotics containing Ofloxacin and Ornidazole. • Take oral rehydration solution (ORS) and drink good quantities of water to keep yourself well hydrated.
Gradually, you should be able to overcome it and be back to normal.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
