It seems to be infection of the gastrointestinal tract.

Detailed Answer:
Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I will take care all of your medical concerns.

The symptoms you are facing are very much consistent with gastroenteritis. It may be due to unhygienically cooked food, contaminated water or some other factors.

If I was your treating physician I would have prescribed you antibiotic like Rifaximin for 5days. Plus Loperamide and Omeprazole 40 mg twice daily before meals. Please do consult your treating doctor who can formulate suitable doses.

Keep yourself hydrated. Take pedialyte 5 times a day. It will get your fluids and electrolytes back. Keep your hands clean before taking meals. Cook food properly at home. Don't eat outside until you get better.

Some medications need a prescription. So it's advised to consult your physician for that.

Have a wonderful time ahead. Hope I answered all of your questions. If satisfied, close the discussion and give five star rating.
Regards!
