Respected user, Hi
Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your concern in depth .
* This indicates infection of the intestine with some sort of bacteria or virus
which may be ingested via some contaminated food or liquids .
* Basic lab tests including complete blood counts and serum widal test are
confirmatory for the diagnosis of your condition .
Hope this clears your query .
