Brief Answer:

Kindly get ultrasound whole abdomen done

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Your symptoms could be due to an infection, viral or typhoid, etc.

Since you experienced bad stomach pain, it is very important that an ultrasound abdomen is done as soon as possible to rule out any anatomical cause.

Also simple blood tests like complete blood count, typhidot test will also be helpful

Meanwhile, you can take an antacid like Digene syrup, medicine for vomiting like Ondem Syrup up to 2 times a day, painkillers. Drink cleaner water and take soft foods. Avoid raw foods.

Hope I have answered your query.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Vaishalee Punj, General & Family Physician
