Hi, I have been suffering from incomplete evacuation from last 7 years. Have been to a colorectal surgeon and all my reports of colonoscopy, endoscopy are normal. Anorectal manometry was also normal and the report had also specified capacious rectum with increased rectal compliance. My stool had been soft but still facing incomplete evacuation problem. Tried with Ayurvedic medicines thinking it would be constipation but it caused me to go to loo 3 or 4 times a day still with incomplete evacuation. Had taken medicines like rifaximin 2 weeks course couple of times in a year, econorm and husk granules powder. Recently had been to a different doctor and he had prescribed prucalopride. Every day I need to digitally evacuate soft stool 3 or 4 times. Won't get urge need to go to bathroom and digitally help myself. Didn't understand whether it is constipation or diarrhea because stool is soft and incomplete evacuation. Please help.

There are few suggestions: you are suffering from constipation not diarrhea. Diarrhea is drug induced
one is optimal control / management of hypothyroidism is required. That is your tsh levels
to rule out any other metabolic problem like diabetes
take plenty of water and fibre in diet
be active physically
continue prucalopride
meet a gastroenterologist with all your reports, if symptoms persist.

I had diarrhea with severe stomach pain three weeks ago and I took medicines and it stopped in 3 days. But still my stomach didn't feel comfortable. Now again again after a week the stomach pain with loose stools and urgency of passing motion as soon as I eat, frequent burping and gas passing as soon as I eat mostly at night started. So it's been a week with these symptoms same daily and I have been taking rifaximin, nexpro 40 and vsl 3 for the past 4 days but no improvement. I am worried what might be the cause of this. No vomiting. There are small reddish bumps which are very itchy on my back, flank and thighs. Are these related to these symptoms. Is it irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel disease. Is it curable? Should I do colonoscopy or blood tests because I am scared to do these tests. Are there any other tests like ultrasound or stool test to diagnose what these symptoms are? Please reply soon. I am really worried.

Hello doctor. I have been living out of my town in different cities for studies and job for last 10 years .i have a gastric issue of food poisoning 3-4 times in a month .because I often have to eat street food and the food in hotels, restaurants. Because I don't have any cooking facility at my room. So whenever I visited local doctors for gastric problems, doctor used to give me combination of two drugs ofloxacin 200 and ornidazole 500 .this combination worked best for me for 2-3 years. But later it stopped working. Later doctor started giving me combination of ofloxacin200 and tinidazole500. Now this combination also not working. Because I took it for another 2-3 years. Moreover doctor tried rifaximin 400 .but it could not help me. I want to ask you what other drugs are available for my issue. Now i'm getting semi loose stools and feeling of fever and chills. I'm expecting medicines for my current issue.

treat the root cause and not the disease or symptoms you need to get a comprehensive blood test with all inflammatory markers, vitamin and mineral levels to find out your overall health status which your current doctor has not done .you cannot treat what you cannot see

My mother weight is 26 kg and height 5. She is suffering from ibs d as described by doctors as she usually goes to toilet for 5-7 times every day. From childhood she was 32 kg. But due to this loose motion she is unable to gain weight. She even can't digest protein, fat and dairy products. So she don't like to take protein and dairy products and her diet is mainly carbs and low fat meals. She takes a lot of medicines like lopamide, librax, pantop 20, rifaximin in regular basis. Even in ayurvedic she takes kutsjghan vati. But nothing relieve her from this symptoms. She is suffering from disease since 5 years and in this time period sometimes are feet swell. But now a days it is swelling a lot. All her endoscopy, colonoscopy, stool reports are ok. So I did my liver and kidney profile test. In the report I found my albumin level is 3.2l. Urea -9.8l, bun- 4.6l, bun creatine ratio -8l. Due to covid we could not consult any doctor. Kindly suggest if there is any emergency and why her leg swelling has increased. What can she take to stop her diarrhea and leg swelling. Due to this ibs she has just stopped going out, she becomes nervous and tremble while going out, while talking with new people's, going to doctors for checkup.

A two-week course of the antibiotic rifaximin (Xifaxan) helps to relieve the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and the relief lasts up to 10 weeks after stopping the medication, according to new research.

My son is 7 and half year old. Sometimes transparent mucus comes from his anus. In the month of march this year it occurs 2-3 days once in night and got cured automatically. I gave him albendazole and probiotic enterogermina. But after one month in may again the problem started. Since then some sticky transparent mucus coming out from his anus (while sitting or playing) 2-3 times daily. However, he looks healthy, taking complete diet and no other health related issue, no pain in stomach. First of all the mucus was transparent. I consulted a doctor he suggest metrogyl for 5 days. But the problem remain as it is. Later on Dr. suggested antibiotic cefixime and lactobacillus sachet for 5 days. Than mucus was thick white cough like. But still problem not cured. Again he continued medicine for next one week. Now sometimes (in 3-4 days, once or twice) non sticky watery discharge was coming out. Then I consulted another doctor he gave rifaximin and enterogermina for 5 days. Now sticky mucus is not coming frequently. But he feels sticky internally sometimes. But now once or twice in 3-4 days non sticky transparent water discharge is still coming out. Dr. again continued the same medicine for next 5 days. His all dairy products are stopped completely. Now doctor is also saying for bowel rest for 3 days. His routine stool microscopy and reducing sugar test report were normal. Please suggest what should I do now and what treatment should be given to him.

I am 50 years old woman with 74 kg weight and 5 feet height, having hypothyroidism, hypertension and diabetes. Taking arkamin once a day for hypertension, eltroxin 137 mcg once a day for thyroid replacement and metformin 1 g after breakfast and dinner plus dynaglipt 20 mg with 500 mg metformin before lunch for diabetes. My last hba1c was 6.7 but I am not feeling good most days and have very less energy. My body pains most of the time and since last few days, I am getting headache too sometimes. I get tired very easily with just two hours of house work and though I sleep lately, get up early at 5 or 6 am. Have an irritable bowel syndrome too it seems since I have to go to potty every time I eat or drink water. I.e.i have to go to toilet 5-7 times a day. My vitamins level are ok and iron is also ok when checked last time in may. What is the treatment for ibs and what might be the reason for body pain and getting tired with least amount of work. Energy levels are very low and I can't see and watch videos or films also since I can't be attentive enough to listen with focus due to lack of energy. My hands also pain so much that I don't feel like doing anything. Kindly give me the treatment plan which I am able to follow. Thanks.

Medications. The following types of drugs are used to treat ibs: bulking agents, such as psyllium, wheat bran, and corn fiber, help slow the movement of food through the digestive system and may also help relieve symptoms. Antibiotics such as rifaximin (xifaxan) can change the amount of bacteria in your intestines
medications such as dicyclomine (bentyl) can help relieve painful bowel spasms. They are sometimes prescribed for people who have bouts of diarrhea. These medications are generally...more
