Stomach pain and diarrhea for 4 days. What can help?
I'm a female; 20 years old and I've been having weird stomach pains(not like cramping or anything, but the kind of pain you get when you have diarrhea. i don't know if that makes sense...) but anyway, for the past four days I've been experiencing stomach pain and diarrhea. Especially while I'm at work. I haven't been eating a lot because I'm afraid I'm going to get sick. It seems that almost every time I eat something I end up feeling sick to my stomach; no matter what it is. I've been smoking ciggs for about a year and a half, and I know this contributes to the problem, but ever since I was 17, my senior year in high school, I've been having trouble with my stomach and passing bowels a lot more frequently. I've been having a lot of anxiety for about 6 months now, but it's recently gotten worse after being in several car crashes. So could anxiety be part of the cause of what's going on with my stomach? I hate even going out anywhere 'cause I know I'm going to get sick to my stomach and it's embarassing. Any comments or advice on how to get rid of a stomachache/diarrhea??
Stomach ache and diarrhea, should I go to school?
This sounds pretty nasty but I'll explain.. My stomach has been hurting extremely bad the whole day at school to the point where in every class all I could do was put my head down and close my eyes. It has felt like I need to throw up. Like to the point where I can feel it coming up. I had a soccer game and dinner with my team and I just felt 100x more terrible. I got home and went straight to the bathroom and took the most watery poop of my life. Then I had to go again 10 minutes later and it was even bigger. I've gone 6 times since I've got home. I feel nauseous and my stomach is killing me. I haven't taken any medicine. It's 11:00 and i can't sleep with the constant runs. Should I go to school tomorrow? I really don't feel like I'm well enough. Should I tell my parents I can't go in the morning?
I always get stomach aches (not cramps) and diarrhea before and during my period. Why does this happen and how can I prevent it?
Happens to me too—I blame the postglandins.You and Your HormonesThey are hormones that help slough off the lining of your uterus during menstruation, causing little muscle spasms. They can impact the other smooth muscles in your belly, causing your digestive system to spasm as well—causing pain and diarrheaMy Dr. said it’s pretty common. If it’s bothersome, take a NSAID for a few days before your period and during it. It will keep the muscle contractions down, so you can leave the bathroom :)If it’s very bothersome, tell your doctor. You may need something prescribed to take the edge off.
Stomach Pains and Diarrhea?
Starting around sunday, I took a pill very late at night which is Terbinafine, and in the morning, I started having stomach pains, and a headache, followed by diarrhea later on in the day, later in the night I took some Theraflu and it solved my headache but today, I've been having stomach pains and right after the pains I start having diarrhea and It's been happening non stop all day, almost every 30 minutes to 1 hour I have to make a trip to the bathroom, or if I eaten something, 15 minutes later I have to use the bathroom, so far it was diarrhea the whole time, My parents and I are suspecting this to be the Stomach Flu or Virus because my symptoms match but I'm not sure if non stop diarrhea is one of the symptoms, I haven't vomited though, can anyone help me out with this? Like what to eat and not what to eat? How to treat this? What to do?
Diarrhea and stomach pains?
Hello, for the past 3 days i've been having what I can only describe as bad stomach pains accompanied with a need to go to the toilet and it's always watery or in bits and it happens every hour to 2 hours or so. I've been fighting it off with strong painkillers but is this a case of bad diarrhea or should I be worried?
I'm 38 weeks pregnant with diarrhea and a stomach ache that comes and goes. What could this be?
I've gone to the bathroom several times today, and my stomach hurts off and on. It is pretty sharp pains up high in my abdomen (above the top of my uterus - I think), like the ones you might get with diarrhea even when you aren't pregnant. Earlier in the day I felt a bit nauseous and didn't really want to eat or drink anything. I've finally been able to eat (I've been forcing myself to sip water, even when I didn't want to). If the diarrhea is still around tomorrow morning, I'm going call my doctor. Do you think this could be a sign of upcoming labor, or do you think that I am just sick?
What are the best ways to treat bad stomach cramps and diarrhea?
The best thing for diarrhea is to let it run its course, ie get the bad bug out. Symptoms can be upsetting, so keeping hydrated is actually a good line of defense. Using an anti-diarrhea medication, such as Lomotil, can be done, but not to the point of stopping you up. Kopectate can be used for cramping, as well as Peptobismol. Prescription Bentyl can also help with cramping. If the symptoms don't resolve within 3–5 days, a culture should be done for c-diff, a highly contagious infection. As with most issues, if a elevated temperature or severe symptoms are present, seek medical attention.
