Traveller’s diarrhoea is the diarrhoea of developed country people getting in developing countries and it is mostly because of bacteria which may come from food or water.
To prevent traveller’s diarrhoea drink only bottled water and other beverages, eat only cooked food, fruits which are peeled and avoid tap water, ice cubes, ice cream, food from street vendors and unpasteurized milk and milk products.
Carbonated water can also be taken to drink or to wash the mouth. Carbonated water is acidic enough to kill the bacteria including those that cause diarrhoea. You must eat and drink normally if you have traveller’s diarrhoea.
If necessary go to a local doctor and get medicine with antibiotic which help immediately. Most of the medicines which they bring with them are useless because they are always without antibiotics.
