What are the causes for diarrhea, vomiting, stomach pain, cramps, nausea, headache and fever?
Patient: I think that my 23 year old daughter has a stomach virus.....yesterday she had 10 hours of violent diarrhea and vomiting with stomach pains and cramps, nausea, a severe head ache, 101 fever, and body-wide aches.  Today the diarrhea and vomiting tapered off, but she still has body-wide aches and a severe head ache, her fever broke....but she has facial swelling and all her teeth and mouth hurt.......Is this normal for a stomach virus????? Doctor: Dear  these signs are mostly due to viral diarrhea or any thing which irritates the intestine extremly , like foreing body . But in this case its  a viral diarrhoe.The group of symptoms u explained is due to consequences of dehydration n all  essential electrolyte loss like sodium pottasium etc..these all maintains the fluid level and blood pressure in our body n blood vessels and cellular integrity....because of same reason she is suffering from swelling and muscle cramps etc.....so please rehydrate ur daughter with ORS   immediately  as this will also  maintain proper level of electrolyte in blood ...and resolve breathing problem...Last but not the lleast  consult imediately ur physcian to  start proper antibiotics and  multivitamins n proper amount of ORS.....till then start eating curd with a pinch of black peeper added.  Avoid spicy n bulky fatty meals for  a weak.. chew 1 cardamom  in every  3 hours or when she feel nauseating
