I went to a small clinic to put iv for dehydration. And now after 15 days I am having diarrhea. I didn't eat any junk food or anything else to cause diarrhea. I am worried that what if they used a used syringe for the iv. Is diarrhoea a symptom of hiv or hep? Does the symptom appear in 15 days? I am really worried. What should I do?

1. Yeah, defenitely not hiv or hep 2. Diarrhoea may be due to any antibiotics given during your visit to clinikk. 3. Use pre pro tablets for 3 days / rehydrate with ors 4. Include complex carboydrates in diet 5.if waterry diarrhoea continues, you might need antibiotics,(most feel better after prebiotics) 6. Use zinc supplementation for few days 7. If you are still concerned, testing can be done for hiv/hep.
