Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had severe abdominal/intestional pain and cramping all day since I ate some Safeway packaged salad late last night with hard boiled eggs and bacon that was expiring, with some dressing. I also have a headache and overall body ache. This has been going on for over 12 hours. What is over the counter recommended treatment..
Hi. Thanks for your query. Noted your history of severe abdominal cramps and pains since you had eaten Safeway packaged salad, hard boiled eggs ad bacon. This has given you gastroenteritis which in turn is causing headache and body ache. Since these are the symptoms suggestive of acute intestinal infection , I would advise you to take the following: Tums and omeprazole, activated charcoal, multivitamins and probiotics. I would advise you the following in addition to the above: An antibiotic and metronidazole and antispasmodic to control pain. Complete the course of 5 days.
