Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of diarrhea and abdominal pain which seems to be due to lactose intolerance and irritable bowel syndrome.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for proper examination. Doctor my order test like stool test , endoscopy , ultrasound and take history and will start treatment accordingly.

You should avoid intake of outside food. Take plenty of fluids in diet. For now eat light and non spicy , take antacid after every meal and take light walk after every meal .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
