What Do You Suggest For Diarrhea With Red Blotches On My Neck And Stomach?

Been sick since Saturday , started with diarrhea then throwing up. Slepted all day Sunday into Monday , tried to eat but threw up and now have red blotches on my neck and stomach. I am 44 yr old female. Never had this before , just concerned because I have a 2 yr old and don't want him getting sick. So far he isn't showing any symptoms, neither is my husband.

Hello dear,

The symptoms as mentioned in your post is attributed to either infection or inflammation in the Gastrointestinal tract.

Presenting with such symptoms, I usually treat my patients with:
1. Tablet Pantoprazole + Domperidone twice daily (to be taken half an hour before food)
2. Anti spasmodics like Dicyclomine preparation twice daily (to be taken after food).
3. Antibiotics like Ofloxacin+Ornidazole preparation twice daily (to be taken after food)
4. Oral Rehydration Solution (ORS) for maintaining the hydration status of the body.
5. Take soft, plain, non-spicy foods

If symptoms still persist, it will be better to consult a Gastroenterologist & get a proper physical examination done to find out the exact cause.
Investigations like complete blood count, stool examination & Ultrasound scan of abdomen will be helpful in detecting any pathological cause for the symptoms.

There is no need to worry, you will be fine.
Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
