Brief Answer:
Use probiotics, nothing to be concerned.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

I don't think you should be concerned because a stomach bug can last up to two weeks. You should have used probiotics such enterogermina or yovita to reestablish the intestinal flora.
Also I recommend you to keep hydrated having lots of fluids and water.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
