Do Stomach Pain And Vomiting Suggest Amoeba Infection?

Hi, I m in Goa, India, and I m feeling very bad (3a.m.). I had diarrhea 4 days ago and was worth stomachpain closely to vomit. Than I took 3 days oflixacin +ornidazole until now. The diarrhea stopped, but the belly problem did increase further. I guess I have Amöbia. Now I have Norfloxacin IP 400mg+Tinidazole IP 600mg (10 Tablets) also. How often should take this (Norflix-TZ) tablets? One a day or two a day?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of stomach pain and vomiting which seems to be due to acute gastroenteritis caused by H. Pylori/ viral infection. Poor immunity of body is further additive factor for your condition. Need not to worry. You should watch for loose motions, dehydration, fever, urinary problems etc to rule out underlying pathology. I would suggest you to take proper rest. Visit gastroenterologist once and get it examined. You should get blood tests done to find out underlying cause of fever whether bacterial or viral and start treatment accordingly. You should do tepid sponging as well.You can give meftal spas syrup will before meals 3 times a day along with proton pump inhibitors. Avoid taking cold carbonated beverages and hot and spicy food. You should take plenty of fluids to rehydrate.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
