General Surgeon,  's  Response
HI.
The combination of diarrhea, vomiting, pain in abdomen which on a scale of 10/10 and increases on changing position is suggestive of an inflammatory process in the abdomen. I would advise the following in such a patient:
Get admitted to the hospital.
Intravenous antibiotics, fluids and supportive medicines .
Blood- complete blood picture, kidney functions tests, blood sugar fasting and post-lunch,
Urine- routine,microscopy, culture and sensitivity ( before start of antibiotic)
Ultrasonography of abdomen.
The diagnosis got in such a way will lead to decided whether you need a medical management or an emergency surgical intervention.
