Suggest Treatment For Severe Stomach Pain And Nausea

Hi! a few days ago, I was feeling totally fine when I randomly got an intense stomach pain that quickly turned to nausea. I was sweating cold and eventually fainted for a few seconds. I later discovered that I had a throat infection and am on antibiotics. Should I be concerned about the faint? Or should I just assume it s part of the infection?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of severe stomach pain and nausea which seems to be due to acute gastroenteritis which is a type of viral infection which leads to electrolyte imbalance in body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you not to increase dose of Zofran without proper prescription. You should take proper rest. You should take plenty of fluids to rehydrate. Take antiemetic medication as well. Avoid taking cold carbonated beverages and hot and spicy food.
You should do tepid sponging as well. Visit general physician 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 can take paracetamol along with antacids/ proton pump inhibitors.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
