I Was Having Some Diarrhea Earlier Last Week But It

Question: I was having some diarrhea earlier last week but it had stopped. (Did not take any medication for it) then sometime Friday my right side was hurting but it felt like pain I've had before plus some back pain. The last two days my stools have been very pale and this morning had some blood in it. Is this something I should be checked out for right away or should I wait and see if it stops happening? Can it wait until tomorrow to be checked?
Brief Answer:
Possibility of a gastroenteritis must be considered.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Possibility of a gastroenteritis must be considered. In most cases it will settle by itself without any complications.
As of now drink plenty of water and take rest, you can wait for couple of days for spontaneous recovery.
If symptoms persists you have to go for a stool routine examination and ultrasound scan.
Thanks
