Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Yes. I have had diarrhea for four days now and my colon feels enlarged. I ate a salad on Saturday with butternut squash and it was after that that I started having this problem. Bit doesn t seem to be going away. The diarrhea is all day every day.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if the frequency of passing stool is more than 4 to 5 in day then it must need some treatment because it could be due to some infection and common cause could be protozoa infection I would suggest "Tab Metronidazole 400 mg" twice in day for five days, hope this information helps
