There is tenderness in the pit of the stomach, a heavy sensation in the stomach and bad taste in the mouth.

There is nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea. If the case worsens, there is dizziness, even delirium and changes in the pupils of the eye.

The heart beat becomes rapid and weak. Sometimes, acute inflammation of the small intestine is usually found in children.

It is accompanied by fever, rigor and cramps around the naval. The pain becomes so acute that the patient is afraid to move. Appetite is lost, bowels are constipated or watery motions occur. There may be nausea and flatulence.
