General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,
Thank you for your query.
I suspect food poisoning.

*do you have fever, stomach pain/cramping, loose stools? Vomiting?
*do you have any other medical issues or take any medications?
*any mucus or blood in stools

I recommend :
- if you have loose stools or vomiting, then it is food poisoning.
# stay well hydrated
# have a bland diet and easily digestible food.
# if you are not able to hydrate yourself, or symptoms become severe, see a doctor for medication and intravenous fluids.

Else this should settle in 2 days. Avoid milk and sugary products till this resolves. Have plenty of curd with active cultures.
If stools become too water have black tea with lemon and honey.

Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
Wish you good health
