It seems that your husband is having acute infectious enteritis for which he requires a course of antibiotics like ofloxacin and ornidazole along with some pre and probiotic. Also keep his hydration level well by giving lots of fluids in his diet. For pain may take some antispasmodic like drotavarine.
