A member asked:

I have been having diarreah for two days now (with fever at night).. i believe it is a stomach flu. is there anything i can do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Diarrhea: If you haven't been backpacking, drank contaminated water, been to mexico or overseas, the most common would be the stomach flu. Plenty of clear liquids(alcohol not included), b.R.A.T. Diet (bananas, rice, apples, toast) are the first line of care. Avoid fat and protein. If it lasts 2 days, you start vomiting, or it's getting worse despite the above, you may need an iv.
