How Can Abdominal Bloating And Cramps Be Treated?

I have had lower intestinal distress, bloating & some cramping that leads into diarrhea since Friday, it s mostly bright yellow water. Could this be an intestinal flu or should I call my doctor? I do not have much of an appetite either & I feel well other than this.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Yes, it might be intestinal flu only. All symptoms that you are describing, indicates there is a definite infection of the bowels.

You need to be treated with some antibiotics. You can take full course of any antibiotics like amoxicillin, ampicillin, ofloxacin, norfloxacin, etcetera according to the body weight.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
