Suggest Remedy For Persistent Nausea And Diarrhea

Dear doctor May I ask a question? Three weeks ago, my mother (72years old) suffered from flu associated with productive cough and was treated with an antibiotic and becomes well with no side effects on lungs. Associated with these symptoms, there were nausea and diarrhea. These two symptoms are present until now. The stool analysis and culture indicate: no blood, no mucus, no bacteria, no parasites, no fungi, and no yeast cells. However, it indicates occasional fecal leucocytes and 2 pus cells. What do you think the problem is?I am very sorry for disturbance, but I really need your help.Thank you very much in advance.Best regards Yours truly, Samira A Ali Egypt

Hello dear

Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query for your mother in details .

* This is in relation with possible side effect of antibiotic leading to gastritis
and altered gut flora mechanics .
* Guidelines for better recovery

- Allow her plenty of liquids in sessions .
- Prefer to give soft , light diet with avoidance of oily , spicy , non veg .
- Intake of PPI , anti emetic as ondancetron , anti secretory agents as
racecadrotil will help to recover faster .

Hope this will help to clear your doubt .
Wishing her fine recovery .
