What Causes Diarrhea And Fever?
Hello, I have been dealing with kidney stone issues for about two weeks now. The result was lithotripsy and a stent. The stent was removed just this last Wednesday. Last night and through about 10am today, I had diarrhea. Now, I have a slight fever. I am hoping this is due to a slight case of food poisoning from last night's dinner, and not related to my kidney stone and stent removal. Thank you.

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to a gastrointestinal infection. I suggest you to:
-Do a stool test.
-Do a complete blood count to rule out the cause.
Meanwhile, I suggest:
-Take Tylenol for fever.
-Use probiotics.
-Use Imodium for diarrhea.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
