Brief Answer:
cause needs to be determined.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to HCM,

I can Understand your concerns.

It might be due to antibiotics or stress induced or due to infection.

You should go for stool examination to rule out infectious cause.

Most probably it appears to be antibiotic induced. So consult your doctor about the change of antibiotic or dose reduction.

Drink plenty of water.
Avoid uncooked food/semi-cooked and take healthy diet.

Practice relaxation exercises like deep breathing and meditation.

Hope this helps

Feel free to ask further.

Thanks.
