Hello,
Severe belly-button abdominal pain with diarrhea + fever is not IBS and suggests infection or inflammation (like gastroenteritis, food poisoning, inflammatory bowel flare, or sometimes appendicitis).
Paracetamol for pain
Oral Rehydration Solution frequently Coconut water / soups also okay
Zinc 20 mg once daily for 5 days
Please consult your nearest physician or gastroenterologist in person ASAP if symptoms worsen
meanwhile: Drink ORS / fluids Eat light foods (rice, banana, toast, curd) Paracetamol for fever/pain Avoid Ibuprofen/strong painkillers Do NOT take loperamide if you have fever or bloody stool
Thank you
