Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to Healthcaremagic
Greetings of the day
Dear Ms
Going by description of your symptoms you seem to be having Acute Gastroenteritis. Feeling thin is likely to be due to dehydration. The long thin string is unlikely to be worm or helminth as they are unlikely to be so long, it's likely to be mucous plug.
The principle of management is
1 Ensuring adequate intake of water and electrolyte to prevent dehydration
2. Ensure adequate intake of calories
I would suggest you the following
1. Probiotic will be helpful in reducing frequency of stools
2. Drink sufficient quantity of water and electrolyte. Have a glass of electrolyte solution after every loose stools
3. Antispasmodic : Over the counter antispasmodic like Drotavarin will help you get relief from stomach ache
4. Anti motility drug : If there is absence of blood in stool then anti motility drug like Loperamide which is available as over the counter medication will be helpful in reducing frequency of stools
4. Do ensure adequate intake of calories
5. Antacid like Pantoprozole will be helpful
Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
Take care
Best regards
