Hello,my name is dr,Dorina Gurabardhi.I understand your concern.
Some advices that I can give to you are:
-Drink Clear Liquids. Drink plenty of clear liquids, including purified water, clear soups and broths, gelatin, and juices. Avoid apple and pear juices, caffeine, and alcohol.
-Get Bed Rest. Minimize all activities and stay in bed as much as possible. Getting as much sleep and rest as possible is a key ingredient in recovering from any infection.
-Add Foods Gradually. When you are ready to eat solid foods, stick to low-fiber foods at first. Try soda crackers, toast, eggs or rice.
-Avoid fatty foods, high-fiber foods or highly seasoned foods can make symptoms worse.
Hope my answer was helpful,if you have any other question I will be glad to answer,thanks!
