Diarreah for more than twenty four hours |
|
Dear Ask The Doctor: On friday i was throwing up. i only threw up a few times. i felt sick for two days later then i felt fine. a day later i began to have very bad diarreah. in the beginning it was bright yellow. this has been going on for more than 24 hours. im in great pain. what should i do? Dear Nicole: Let me reassure you that diarrhea does not necessary need to be treated; it would stop on its own. I would only suggest you to drink plenty of fluids to replenish your losses, Gatorade or even Pedialite might help recover your electrolytes. Diarrhea could last for one or two weeks and should not be of any concern; however you could try OTC medications to relieve your symptoms such as Bismutol. I wish you a prompt recovery. |
