stomach infection remedy - #21616
I am dealing with some really unsettling symptoms that I can't seem to shake off. About a week ago, I started feeling this intense pain in my lower abdomen, it felt like my stomach was at war or something. Then came the nausea and, well, a bit of um... let's just say the bathroom and I became best buddies. My friend was visiting, and she thought it was just something I ate, but now I'm questioning if I might have a stomach infection. I went to the doctor, and they suggested maybe it could be a stomach infection but didn’t do much more than tell me to hydrate (like I haven’t already been drinking water like a fish). They didn’t really give me a stomach infection remedy or anything, just some bland diet advice and said it should pass. But it hasn’t! I’m also freaking out a bit because it just keeps dragging on, and my stomach feels like it's a mess! I kinda looked online for a stomach infection remedy, but everything seems so vague? Should I be trying probiotics or avoiding certain foods more? And oh, are there any over-the-counter remedies that could actually help or is that just a waste of time? I feel stuck waiting for this to blow over and honestly would like to know if there are some quick stomach infection remedies that really work. What do you all suggest?
