Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of diarrhea,low grade fever,body pain and chills which seems to be due to acute gastroenteritis which is due to viral infection. I would suggest you to take a course of an antibiotic and metronidazole and probiotic.

You should take Probiotics such as lactobacillus as well. Maintain hydration of status by taking plenty o fluids. You should take Ibuprofen to along with proton pump inhibitors as well. You should take curd in diet. Take paracetamol and plenty of rest for viral infection .

Start taking oral rehydration fluids sip by sip to maintain the hydration. Visit general physician once and get it examined. You should go for blood tests as well and start treatment after proper examination.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
