Hi
Thanks for posting your query on HCM.
I have read and understood your concern.
That sounds like enteritis which could be of bacteria, parasitic or viral origin.I will suggest you see the Doctor for a stool exam/culture.In the meantime, i will advise you try the following:
-Take oral rehydration salt to replenish ions and fluid losses in diarrhea
-An anti-diarrheal like imodium
-An anti-pyretic like paracetamol for fever
The rest of the treatment will depend on test results.
Hope this will help.You may write back if more concerns.
Wish you a speedy recovery
