Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of diarrhea along with abdominal grumbling . Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to many reasons like food poisoning , food allergy , infection of digestive system , gas , acid reflux , stomach flu or colic . I would suggest you to sips of water or other clear fluids on a very frequent basis. You should avoid solid foods for a few hours try small amounts of mild foods such as rice, applesauce and do not take foods or drinks caffeine , carbonated beverages , citrus and dairy products. If condition doesn't get better then consult gastroenterologist for proper examination and get complete examination done. Doctor may prescribe antibiotic along with antiamoebic in addition to an antacid and a probiotic. Dicyclomine can be taken for severe pain in abdomen. Avoid food which produce gas .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
