Suggest Remedy For Anxiety

HI I am a 25 year old female who has been suffering from severe anxiety and panic for about a month and a half now. Tonight I had a lot of gas and burping and then had the sudden urge to use the bathroom. After I went I noticed that my stool was very loose and had a bit of red blood at the end of it. Could this be cause from stress?

HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

Loose stool and blood in stool could be due to gastro-enteritis. It is not due to stress or anxiety. In that case, you need to consult a gastro-enterologist. You need antibiotic to control the infection. With antibiotic treatment, you would improve in few days. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
