Hi
Thanks for choosing HCM for your query.
Incomplete data; Age, alcohol intake, hot and spicy food, etc.
In view of the problems described in your question my opinion is that your husband is most probably having some sort of irritable bowel.
Following medications are useful in immediate treatment of the irritable bowel:
Mebeverine tablet with Imodium
Other medications which are proved to be effective include Alosetrone,
Dicyclomine.
Besides, once his symptoms are controlled he needs some life style modifications and
stress management.
Try to avoid foods that trigger your symptoms.
high-gas producing foods like pulses, borroccoli, cauliflower, and
gluten containing foods.
Get enough exercise, drink plenty of fluids and enough sleep.
If he does not show any improvement with the above measures, he has to visit a doctor for detailed examination and possible investigations like blood tests,
Colonoscopy, etc.
I hope your query has been explained, a feed back is appreciated if you are convinced.
Wishing your husband a quick and smooth recovery.
Regards
