Suggest Treatment For Chronic Diarrhea And Vomiting

I ve been having diarrhea all day. It stopped around 11 o clock, and restarted after I ate lunch (a gyro from a Greek restaurant). I think it has been caused by the gyro, possibly from the spices. But 20 minutes ago, I vomited after dinner (French fries and a Chicago style hotdog, bad choice I know). And my diarrhea is now a slight orangeish-pinkish color. My rectum has been burning due to the constant wiping I have to do, and I think the pink is just the blood from the damaged tissue. But I just want confirmation as to why it s pink, and as to why I vomited despite not doing it all day.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of chronic diarrhea and vomiting. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like food intolerance , food allergy , bacterial or viral infection , parasitic infection or inflammatory bowel disease. Need not to worry. You should take oral rehydrating solution and take plenty of fluids. I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for proper examination. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics like ornidazole , albendazole , omeprazole along with loperamide . For now eat light and non spicy , eat fresh fruits and vegetables and eat fruits like banana .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
