Hi Dear ,
As per your query you have painful diarrhea,itchy and sweating palms . Well there can be many reason for symptoms you mention in query like infectious mononucleosis , food allergies from sea food and nuts , gallstone problem , intestinal worms and chronic liver disease . But in your case it seems to me that the symptoms are due to food poisoning , which usually happen due to certain foods like sea food and nuts . I would suggest you to to avoid particular typer of food which is causing this and take over the counter anti histamine like bendryl . . Consult gastroenterologist for proper examination. Doctor may order endoscopy , x-ray of digestive track and stool test to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may prescribe medicine like lopramide and antibiotics like ornidazole . Doctor may also refer you to allergy specialist , who can order allergy specific test to rule out condition like glutem allergy .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
