Suggest Remedy For Terrible Stomach Ache

Hi. I have been having a terrible stomach ache for the past 16 hours. I also noticed a clear liquid discharge (mucous like) in my stool. Other than that my bowl movement is fine. I took Ibuprofen and it did nothing to stop the stomach pain. What can that be? I am considering to go to ER as the pain is pretty bad.

Hi thanks for asking question.

Your stomach pain history is acute sudden presentation.
Do you have eaten any outside food??
As you might have simple gastric infection by outside food.
If you have eaten excess with fast food then it might be gastric indigestion.

Here i will advise you to take omeprazole and one prophylactic antibiotic like ofloxacin with ornidazole combination.

Meanwhile follow below instruction
-Take more water
-More green leafy veg salad for few days
-Avoid high fatty diet for 3 to 5 days
-Avoid smoking and alcohol
-Fruits taken more
-Avoid excess spicy food
-Avoid excess tea and coffe

Get your stool examination just to be sure that it is not parasitic infection.If stool showing eggs or trophozoites then treated accordingly.

All fats are digested by stomach.So excess fat also can lead mucus discharge.So avoid fatty diet for few days.

If still no benefit then USG or Endoscopy done after consulting ER.

I hope your concern is solved.

Wish you good health.
