What Causes Diarrhea And Abdominal Cramps?

I have had loose stools like sand from a beach for over a week today and mostly everyday for over a week I have the cramping of diarrhea but haven t gone soon as I eat the cramping will get worse and I will have to go I also can hear it making noises, also for over a year I have had what feels like bursitis in both hips but maybe its connected to some other issue I have had fast growing polyp at my colonoscopy before but the last one was good so they said every 3 years which is in February all around healthy otherwise.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

In my opinion, we should definitely rule out intestinal infection in your case. Most common cause for diarrhoea with abdominal cramps is large intestinal infection. So better to get done ultrasound examination of abdomen and stool culture and sensitivity report. Culture report will isolate the causative organism and sensitivity report will guide about effective antibiotic treatment. Along with antibiotics, you need probiotic (sporolac), racecadotril, oral rehydration solution (ORS) and zinc tablet.Eat more curd and yogurt. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.

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