Hi, it appears that you have gastric irritation, and infection causing diarrhea. You need to be treated for this first, sucralfate also may cause diarrhea. For concussion and sensitive to light you may have to consult a neurologist for diagnosis and treatment.
For intestines i prescribe omeprazole, ofloxacin, and loperamide when ever there is diarrhea. Thank you.
