Hi,
Noted your history and understood your concerns.
Grainy stool, cramps in abdomen and difficulty to empty bowel properly can be due to the following reasons:
Entero-colitis, intestinal infection, fecolith formation, changed bowel habits, eating something that does not suit your abdomen.
Hence I would advise you the following:
Get the stool tests done as well as X-ray of abdomen in standing position to know whether there is fecolith formation, obstruction or so on.
Consult your Doctor for clinical evaluation, correlation with tests and give you prescription based medications.
Do not try something at home.
Avoid the foods and beverages that instigate or enhance the problems.
Plenty of oral fluids.
Avoid outside food or unusual things.
Take care.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. T Chandrakant,
