Suggest Treatment For Abdominal Pain Along With Diarrhea
I am 43 years old, female, and over the past year was dieting and lost about 20 pounds (now about 120 pounds). Two months ago I started to get severe gas and then about ten days ago started to get diarrhea but only after dinner. Diarhea has stopped but now having abdominal pain--at lower part o abdomin, like intestinal pain. help!
Hi. The most probable treatment for such an Abdominal Pain with Diarrhea , a waterborne disease can be a course of an antibiotic, Metronidazole, Tablets against worms, anti-spasmodics, Probiotics and supportive therapy. If there is no relief within a few days you can go for consultation of a Surgical Gastroenterologist and Investigations like that of stool, blood, urine, ultrasonography and CT scan of the abdomen. There is a possibility of Gastrointesinal Cancer that has to be ruled out. Colonoscopy or Upper GI Endoscopy can be planned according to the CT scan report for diagnosis, biopsy and treatment plan.
