Pain was associated with vomitings- almost 10 times a day which were bilious(green coloured), foul smelling, projectile and contains watery content, aggravated on taking water and relieved on medication.
After a few days he again developed pain abdomen, the pain radiating to back , then he went to government hospital where he underwent treatment but the symptoms didn't subside.
