I have loose motions from Dec 17. I had been to my local Dr. He gave me injection and said I have some infection in stomach. I am relieved of cramps in stomach but not completely from loose motion. I get it very often I eat something oily or heavy food. Please advice

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of stomach infections causing frequent diarrhea. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like viral gastroenteritis , bacterial gastroenteritis , food allergies , lactose intolerance , giardiasis or irritable bowel syndrome. It is due to disturbed metabolism and electrolyte balance of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor my order test like stool test , endoscopy , ultrasound and take history. Doctor may prescribe laxative along with antiemetic drug. You should start with omeprazole , ornidazole , albendazole. For now eat light and non spicy , take antacid after every meal and take light walk after every meal.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
