Experts say that if one complains of vomiting, diarrhoea and abdominal pain, it is important to get tested for Covid as these are also symptoms of the infection.
Prof of Gastroenterology Department of PGI, Usha Dutta, said that corona infection is slowly affecting other parts of the body as well. In such a situation like vomiting, diarrhoea and abdominal pain, elders and children need to be extra careful.
Dr Usha says that avoid self medication and seek proper medical assistance if there is any problem related to the intestines of the stomach. “Do not take pain medication without consulting a doctor. Apart from this, one should eat light food and give priority to home remedies that increase immunity. Use turmeric and other Ayurvedic medicines carefully. Do not consume food with high oil spices.”
Use public toilets carefully
It is very important to be careful when one is outside, especially while using public toilets. Apart from this, household toilets, wash basins, pots, taps and floors should all be cleaned daily with hypochlorite 0.5 solution or soap.
