Suggest Remedy For Severe Back Pain, Diarrhea And Headache
Question: Hi, I have been having right side back pain along with right leg and right side pelvic pain. Diarrhea, headache and nausea. What could this be? Thank you.
Brief Answer:
Acute gastroenteritis / Stomach flu. No worries. Pain will subside
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Right sided back pain with no prior history of trauma or heavy weight lifting or no chronic history is likely a sequelae of this recent nausea and diarrhea episodes and likely explain an electrolyte imbalance that led to this pain and discomfort.
All you are having is an acute gastroenteritis aka stomach flu and needs symptomatic care with diet adjustments for a while like BRAT diet ( Banana, rice applesauce and toast) with pomegranate juice, green tea and some pepto and loperamide.
Wait and see the symptoms will resolve. Take some tylenol for the pain and rest for a while and drink adequate fluids with electrolyte rich solutions. I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
