It is excellent that you have started oral rehydration therapy to stay hydrated. However, because you are experiencing bloody diarrhea and a fever, it is very important to consult a doctor for a proper medical evaluation, which will likely include a stool test. I recommend pausing the self-treatment with norfloxacin-tinidazole until a healthcare provider evaluates you, as antibiotics can sometimes complicate certain diarrheal infections. Please continue sipping fluids, rest as much as possible, and visit a clinic soon so we can get you the right, targeted treatment to help you feel better.

Loose motions occurring twice are usually mild but can still cause fluid loss. Increase your fluid intake, take a light diet, and observe your symptoms. Consult a doctor if diarrhoea continues, worsens, or is accompanied by pain, fever, or weakness.

It is highly advisable to take your father-in-law to the hospital for an evaluation. At 83, recovering from COVID-19 with ten days of persistent diarrhea and very poor food intake puts him at high risk for dehydration and electrolyte imbalances. Since Vizylac (lactic acid bacillus) and Norflox TZ (norfloxacin and tinidazole) have not brought improvement, he needs professional medical assessment. Hospital care can safely provide intravenous fluids to rebuild his strength, monitor his kidneys, and identify the exact cause of his symptoms. Please seek professional medical care promptly.

Please stop taking Norflox TZ, as this antibiotic combination is not suitable without loose motions and can cause unnecessary side effects. Pudin Hara may help with mild gas, but it will not treat the fever. You can safely continue taking paracetamol for the fever and pain. Since these symptoms have lasted two days, it is very important to avoid further self-medication and consult a healthcare professional. A proper physical examination is needed to identify the underlying cause and ensure you receive the correct treatment.

Loose motions with stomach pain for 24 hours can lead to dehydration and weakness. Increase fluid intake, eat light foods, and consult a doctor if pain, fever, or symptoms continue.

Needing to pass stool soon after eating, especially with a normal appetite and no gas, is often due to an exaggerated gastrocolic reflex (a normal bowel response that becomes overactive) or a condition like Irritable bowel syndrome rather than an infection, which is why antibiotics like Norflox-TZ did not help. This is usually not serious but can be bothersome; it can improve with regular meal timing, stress management, avoiding trigger foods (spicy, oily, caffeine), and increasing soluble fibre (like oats, bananas) to regulate bowel movements. However, since symptoms are persistent, it is important to consult a doctor for evaluation (such as stool tests) to rule out other causes, especially if you notice weight loss, blood in stool, or worsening frequency.
