Patient's question:
I had vomiting and diarrhea ten days ago and was given injections to relieve it. After that, I experienced stomach pain, nausea, and high fever again. In the morning, the IV treatment helped, but around 10 PM, it started to fluctuate again. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Based on the preliminary situation you described, I suspect the stomach pain is caused by smooth muscle spasm of the gastrointestinal tract. Judging from the characteristics of the pain, the duration of the course, and the absence of a prior history of stomach problems, it exhibits symptoms of smooth muscle spasm, likely induced by irregular eating habits. For this type of stomach pain, antispasmodic drugs such as 654-2, hyoscyamine tablets, or Chinese herbal medicine Weishu Granules can be used for treatment. If necessary, traditional Chinese medicine formulas like Baishao Gancao Decoction or Fu Ling Shao Yao Powder can also be employed.In addition, during the treatment of stomach pain, besides symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important.
