Left Leg Pain Upto Hip, Have Low Water Consumption, Diarrhea Post Eating Out. Is It Due To Dehydration?
I am a 50 year old woman. My left leg hurts from the hip down. I am in another country and the water contains salt, so I dont consume as much as I usually do back home. Recently, 3 days ago I ate at a local restaurant and awake that night with diarrhea . I have had it every since. I thought it was getting better after breakfast today, because it was softening, but tonight after dinner, it is back. I was wondering if I could be dehydrated and that is why my leg and lower back hurt. Can you give me some advice.

Take NORFLOXACIN400MG twice a day for 5 days and ORS packets,each diluted in 1 litre boiled and cold water,to prevent dehydration,frequently depending on the severity of dehydration.Coconut water may be taken freely to replinish potassium.
