What Causes Water And Air Discharge With Diarrhea?

Fell backward water skiing one week ago and had lots of water go up my rear-end - very painful. I have had uncontrollable discharge for a week and think something might have ripped. No pain, but air & water, now sometimes coming with mix of feces. Bowel movements kind of normal but softer w no pain, in-between a little diarrhea .. very strange. Female, 52 in good shape and wondering what kind of doctor to go see? Today for first time, I m weak, getting chills, achy all over - but also went camping overnight and summited two peaks (6 miles) in one day in Adirondaks this past Wed. Thurs. and not sure if it s from that.

Gastroenterologist,  's  Response
Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist.

It appears to be due to GI infection. For which I will suggest you to take plenty of fluid and electral powder to prevent fluid and electrolyte insufficiency. Also take a course of probiotics along with mild antispasmodic like drotavarine. Meawhile get your blood and stool examine (Complete haemogram and stool routine microscopy) to see for any infection and if it is there the a course of antibiotic like ofloxacin will also be required.

I hope I have answered your query and this will help you . Wish you a good health
