How Can Pain In The Lower Abdomen Along With Fatigue Be Treated?
My doctor just gave me meds to cure suspected giardia. After 3 days it seems to be working, but I m still very weak and I have pain on my lower right abdomen. I probably had the giardia since last fall, thinking it was lactose intolerance I switched milk. I think I got dehydrated and perhaps a litt malnourished. I m drinking a lot of water now. Anything else I should do? Thank you

Hello,
As a first line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult a gastroenterologist and plan for an ultrasound scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
