Unambiguous conclusion about the nature and cause of the pathological process
Only on the basis of these three manifestations, unfortunately, do

diseases. But there is a plus, similar symptoms allow you to cut
significant amount of other pathologies. Pushing away from
symptoms, general conclusions about the nature of the disease can be made:
• Often, all three symptoms occur in primary lesions.
gastrointestinal tract.
• It is also possible the development of food or other poisoning.
• Infectious causes are less common, but also
take place.
These two groups of causes are in themselves quite
varied.
What diseases of the gastrointestinal tract occur?
diarrhea, vomiting, temperature in an adult:
1) Acute gastritis (inflammation of the gastric mucosa).
2) Acute pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas).
3) Acute cholecystitis (inflammation of the gallbladder).
4) Hepatitis.
5) Acute colitis or enterocolitis (inflammation of one or
several sections of the intestine).
6) Dysbacteriosis.
7) Malignant neoplasms of the digestive tract organs in stages 3-4
(extremely unlikely, since the symptoms in the last stages
acutely expressed and includes a lot of other symptoms, much more
heavy).
Appendicitis.
The second group of causes includes:
1) Food poisoning. As a rule, symptoms in case of poisoning
very revealing.
2) Non-food poisoning (in mercury vapor, heavy salts
metals, etc.).
Infectious diseases are much less common:
• Cholera.
• Dysentery.
• Salmonellosis (often confused with food poisoning).
Differential diagnosis should be left to the doctors. Is impossible
make a clear conclusion about the reasons for this state without
analysis and functional studies. However, proceeding
From the entire symptomatic complex, preliminary
conclusions about their ailments.

and diarrhea, but also:
• Severe pain in the diaphragm (2 fingers below

symptomatology.
Almost in all cases of common symptoms
present:
• The temperature rises to a level of 37.5-39 degrees (the most
high temperature is observed with pancreatitis, acute
cholecystitis, infectious diseases). With malignant
malformations temperature does not fall at all and keeps at the level
37.2-37.5 constantly.
