Brief Answer:
Possible viral infection!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

THis is probably a viral infection. I recommend tylenol: 1000mg every 6-8hours, increased fluids intake and rest. Avoid any anti diarrhea medication such as imodium or loperamide at this time.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be. Keep me updated about your response to the above plan.
