Hi Lily,
Thanks for writing your query.

After reading your post, it seems that you might be having infection of the gastrointestinal tract.

You can take antacid like omeprazole 20 mg along with antibiotic like ciprofloxacin 500 mg twice a day along with metronidiazole 400 mg thrice a day and a lactobacillus preparation. Dicylomine can help in relief from abdominal pain.

I would also suggest that you should have your stool examined for Routine/Microscopic and also for Occult blood.
If the problem persists get a colonoscopy done and get yourself examined by a Gastroenterologist.

I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
