Patient's question:
I have had diarrhea for three consecutive days, and it's yellow and watery in consistency. I go to the bathroom six or seven times a day, and sometimes my stomach cramps. Today, I feel nauseous and have vomited a few times, along with breaking out in a cold sweat. I've already started taking medication for acute gastroenteritis. Are these medications effective?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to visit the internal medicine department of a hospital for a check-up. The medication you are taking can help stop diarrhea, so avoid eating foods. In addition to treating gastroenteritis, it is advised that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process. To strengthen the body, it is important to pay attention to outdoor activities, physical exercise, and not be picky about food. It is also important to drink more water, eat more fruits and vegetables regularly.
