What To Do When A Three-week Old Baby Suddenly Arches His Back And Cries And Has Diarrhea After Every Feed?

My three-week old baby will suddenly arch his back and cry uncontrollably after feeds. This has only started happening three days ago. We breastfeed and supplement with formula. He has diarrhea, usually after every feed. Sometimes he settles down after he has had his poop. Tonight we looked at his abdomen and it seemed a bit bloated and tight… What should we do? Does he need to go in to see his family doctor right away?
