Hello thanks for using Chat Doctor the best treatment is that which targets the right cause. Non-specific treatment might work but might also worsen the situation. There are several causes of abdominal pains associated with diarrhea. Infections are the most common. You need to do a stool microscopy check for bacteria, yeast, parasites etc., stool culture for bacterial investigation, HIV screening etc. in a bit to be sure of the diagnosis. It is only after an appropriate diagnosis has been made, that an effective treatment could be given. Best regards Chat Doctor.
