What Causes Loose Motion And Lurches In Stomach?

Posted on Sat, 15 Nov 2014

Question: I am having loose motions and lurches in the stomach since a week days. I took Brakke for loose motions, it has stopped. I tried cyclopam for the stomach irritation/lurches. Though the lurches have stopped to an extent, however, there are times during the day when i feel them. Owing to loose motions and lurches, my mouth has also become salty.

These symptoms will resolve soon.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

These abdominal symptoms will resolve, you can even stop the medications now.
Some discomfort can be felt due residual bowel inflammation.

Salty taste can be due to medications or just mild gastroesophageal reflux.Try any mouth freshner you like.This should help.

Eating good balanced diet and increasing water intake with some rest can help you recover soon.

Avoid junk/spicy food and addictions, if any.

You should be fine in 3-4 days.

Please ask if there are doubts.Regards.

Thanks for the assistance doctor. I still felt lurches in my stomach (though not severe), after taking a dose of Brakke & Cyclopam each. I did try mouthfreshner as suggested by you, but my mouth's taste doesnt seem to improve. I havent had loose motions since morning. But this bowel movement/irritation is still persisting. Kindly suggest something.

Brief Answer:
Medication will cause side effects

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Medications will cause side effects , so suggest ing some natural treatment. Try adding natural ghee to food. Take lactobailus preparation , this will replace intestinal flora . This will reduce inflammation and help early recovery. Metallic taste is due medication, it will persist for few days. There is no actual treatment for it as such. So try natural things like clove .
