GI issue: You need to try and better understand what the cause of the issue. It can be treated at home with hydration and bowel rest if it is due to gastroenteritis. If there is a functional cause you may need to be in the hospital and possibly need surgery to fix.

No home remedy: These things usually treated in hospital not he. Nothing you do makes a difference. If persists may need surgery to resolve.
