Hello dear,

Presence of blood in vomit is indicative of Gastrointestinal bleeding, secondary to infection or inflammation in the Gastrointestinal tract.
Diarrhea and stomach pain is indicative of infective etiology.

Presenting with such symptoms, I usually treat my patients with:
1. Tablet Pantoprazole + Domperidone twice daily (to be taken half an hour before food)
2. Anti spasmodics like Dicyclomine preparation twice daily (to be taken after food).
3. Lactobacillus preparations or probiotics.
4. Antibiotics like Ofloxacin+ Ornidazole preparations, OR based on culture & sensitivity reports to control the causative organism.
5. Oral Rehydration Solution (O.R.S) for maintaining the hydration status & electrolyte balance of the body.
6. Take soft, plain, non-spicy foods.
7. Avoid fast foods & gas producing food products like cabbage, etc.

So, kindly consult your Doctor and start treatment as advised.

Wishing a good health.
Take care.
