Hello,

With the presenting complaints i would think of gastro intestinal infection.
I would advice my patient to undergo a stool anylasis and a ultrasound of the abdomen.
A course of antibiotic will be helpful to cure the infection.
Consult your doctor for more information.
I find this answer helpful
