I have a bloody nose. it has lasted for about 20 -30 minutes. I was tentatively diagnosed last Friday with recurrent diverticulitis and have been on Cipro and augmentin. I have not taken my temperature but I feel like it is fairly normal. Any suggestions? thanks YYYY@YYYY
You can take antibiotics (quinolones or cephalosporins) with antiprotozoals likemetronidazole,antiemetics,antispasmodics, probiotics and other supportive treatment with dietary restrictions to low fat and high protein.
But the main cure is the only surgical removal of diverticulam because of repeated gut infection or they could be also chances of complications like peritonie,bowel obstruction etc.
So,better you see gastrosurgeon and take advise.
