Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to a gastrointestinal infection. The treatment usually consists of antibiotics.

I suggest you take daily probiotics. I also recommend consulting your doctor about the treatment depending on the results of the exams.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
