Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to ulcerative colitis.

I suggest using spasmolytic for the cramps such as Buscopan.

I also suggest using daily probiotics.

I recommend a healthy diet and drinking a lot of liquids.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
