Brief Answer: GIT infection suspected, stool examination and tt Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic. The symptoms of stomach pain,loose motions and nausea are suggestive of gastrointestinal infection. Consuming outside food and water can be the cause. The food cooked outside (outside home) has high possibility of being contaminated. A stool examination is needed to look for the evidence of infection and to the identify the organism causing the infection. On the basis of result of the stool examination, appropriate anti-microboal can be instituted. Consult a physician for prescription of investigation and medication. If you have more queries, I will be glad to answer. Dr Shailja P Wahal
