Suggest Treatment For Stomach Infection

Posted on Fri, 2 May 2014
Question: On Tuesday, I notice I was having smellier and more frequent gas then normal. Still felt fine and didnt think anything of it. Tuesday night, I began to have diarrhea. The first two episode after midnight Wed (tuesday night), we're loose and normal color, but not watery or bloody. By the morning and through today, I have been experiencing lots of rumbling of the lower intestines, sometimes on the right and often on the left, with cramping pain that for the most part is dull, but occasionally sharp. Often after I have diarrhea, it feels a little better. I'm going to the bathroom almost once an hour. At times, there is blood in my very watery stool. I've attached a picture. The blood is mainly bright red. I have no history of hemorroids, but when i wipe it is a bit raw. Also, I get a touch nauseous when I think of food. Outside of the above symptoms, I don't feel that bad. My temperature has been 98.6 although one reading was 98.9. I rarely pass any gas at all now. As I mentioned, it seems this came on quick and I cant tie it to any food issues.
