Fluids orally: Most important thing is to drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration. For diarrhea you can take immodium ad. But if you are also vomiting and can not keep fluids down, or you have high temperature , then you should consult your doctor. For aches and pains you can take tylenol (acetaminophen) by mouth.Most diarrheas are caused by viral infections and are self limited and get better within 48 hours.
