Question

I've had a fever for a couple of days and some stomach pain. I was eating normal khichdi and rice, and I drank milk with turmeric twice. For the fever, I took Dolo 650. Earlier, I was having loud farts almost every hour, but last night, instead of that, I started having watery diarrhea, and there was no solid stool. It was happening every five minutes. What do you think could be going on? Should I change something in what I'm eating or take any other medicines?
