Doctor can evaluate: Stomach aches and diarrhea can be from a variety of causes. People usually see doctors if symptoms are bad or if they last more than 1-2 days. When diarrhea first starts happening, many adults can benefit by stopping eating and then just drinking small amounts (2-3 ounces) of something like Pedialyte or half-strength Gatorade, hourly for one day. One's primary care doctor can help with advice.
