Stomach bug still niggling. Anyone had this?

I had watery diarrhoea almost 2 weeks ago. It was horrendous I couldn't get off the loo for 2 days.

It seemed to ease with the odd bout of loose stools. But almost 2 weeks later my stomach and bowels still feel iffy. Grumbling and occasional pains. My groin and vulva is sore on one side.

Has anyone heard of it going on so long? Bowels movements are almost normal not perfect.

TIA

Stomach bugs can knock out your ability to digest dairy for a while. Try cutting out absolutely everything made from milk. If it's going to work you will begin to feel better within a week. Then you need to keep it up for a few more weeks before slowly reintroducing dairy.

Also worth checking whether you've got a UTI.

@Aparecium thank you that makes sense.
