Suggest Treatment For Severe Abdominal Pain And Diarrhea

Hi there, I was just wondering what happened to me last night. I went to bed and woke up with severe abdominal pain and cramps for diarrhea. I headed for the washroom, the cramps were worse and I began vomitting. Then, the palms of my hands and the bottom of my feet were really itchy. It lasted for an hour or so, with severe diarrhea and some more vomitting and very fatigued. I feel asleep and was just fine the next day.... why was I just fine the next day? and what caused this intense abdominal pain and the itchiness? Can you explain it? It s happened to me once before....so I knew I would be ok the next day.

Hello
As per the description of your clinical symptoms it seems that you have allergy to certain food. the condition you have faced is acute gastroenteritis probably triggered by some food allergen. This only leads to crampy pain abdomen with episodes of loose stool and often itching.
I would suggest you to rule out the allergen ( Allergy test ) and avoid further exposure to it. If symptoms persists or aggravates you should consult a doctor to prescribe you some anti allergic and anti diarrheal drugs ( Antibiotics may be needed depending upon other clinical symptoms).
Hope this helps you.

Thank you.
