Hello,

Thanks for the query.

From the description of symptoms it appears that you might be affected by infection of gastrointestinal system.

A thorough physical examination and routine stool examination in consultation with your antibiotic will help you in treating the infection. Your physician will also help you in prescribing the needed antibiotic.

Do you frequently eat outside?

Bismuth helps in symptomatic relief, but the cause is yet to be identified and eradicated. Hence I encourage you to consult your healthcare provider for evaluation and prescription.

Hope my answer is useful and helpful. Should you have any queries with regards to my recommendations, I will be available for clarifications.

Regards
