HI
Well come to HCM
Thank for asking
I really appreciate your concern, in my opinion it could be traveler's diarrhea but if it does not comes around on its own then it could be infection and water born infection so I would suggest Tab Metronidazole 400 mg twice in day for five days, I would also suggest to try Lactobacillus later or sooner symptoms will come around and no need to worry about this, hope this information helps.
