Brief Answer:
recurrent amoebiasis

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

According to your symptoms you might have acquired amoebiasis infection of intestine again. As chances of recurrence is more.

But before giving amoebiasis treatment you need to confirm it by getting done stool examination again. It require strong antibiotics so confirmation is needed. Stool examination for amoebiasis.

Since it is repeated attack and another possibility is you may be having inflammatory bowel disease, I suggest you to get colonoscopy(tube passed through anus) done for the diagnosis. For this you need advice written by a doctor.

The treatment depends accordingly. Meanwhile you get investigations done start taking probiotics tablets, drink more water , maintain food hygiene as much as possible (because food is medium of tranfer of infection) , avoid food you are allergic too. Usually milk, spicy items.

Hope I have answered your query. If any further queries are there I would love to help.

Regards
Dr.Deepika Patil
