Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Two months ago, I was treated for and recovered from a strep infection. I took Augmentin. I have had diarrhea every day since. I have used OTC meds, including probiotics, but no change. Should I see a dr or continue waiting for my gut to balance out on it's own? thanks
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is the diarrhea because of antibiotic then it is the self limiting condition and some time it take little more time to come around you can continue the probiotic, if the symptoms persist then you will have to see the doctor for differential diagnosis hope this information helps.
