Hi, this suggests gastro enteritis. Ibuprofen or tylenol wont help here. You need to take anti spasmodic drug(like hyoscine), anti secretary(like racecodotril), anti emetic (domperidone/metoclopramide) and also may require antibiotics. Your hydration should be well maintained. So I advice you to consult your doctor for general physical examination and then to decide the line of management.
Hi, George collins, Pleased to find here, When ever you feel a discomfort of health for quite some time you should seek advise. Food poisoning is a condition, where the intestines are infected, by some bacteria from an external source, the infection should be cured, to get relief from the symptoms. So i advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment. Thank you.
