Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

You have not mentioned about your diet habits. You must avoid eating outside specially fast and fried food if you do. Possibly you might have got some kind of intestinal infection. If I were your doctor, I would advise you for a routine stool test for ova and cyst, prescribe some antibiotic suitable for intestinal infections along with a proton pump inhibitor and a probiotic. Apart from that you might have to modify your dietary habits. Go mostly for home made food, more of vegetable, and liquids. Maintain your hydration properly. However if the symptoms of yours increase in intensity, then you may have to consult your treating family physican.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
