Hello Sir/Madam. My daughter stool test report came (we got it done as her stool had mucus and white flakes). I just want to know if the reports are okay? By the way, she is generally fine and gaining weight normally.

Intermittent mucus/flakes can occur with mild infections or dietary issues. If child is otherwise active and gaining weight, no major concern. Repeat if symptoms persist.
Dr. Yusuf Suggests...
Take a STOOL EXAMINATION, PH & REDUCING SUBSTANCES Test or Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test

View allI have been dealing with stomach discomfort and indigestion for several months, which started after a course of antibiotics and painkillers in August. Since then, I have been experiencing nausea, indigestion, and smelly gas. A few months ago, a USG of the abdomen showed a gallbladder polyp of 2.8 mm, but I am not sure if my current issues are related to that. I am worried about stomach cancer, and this anxiety is affecting me mentally. I also lose weight easily despite going to the gym regularly for weight training (no cardio). My LFT, urine, stool, and CBC were normal. I was low on Vitamin D, so I am taking supplements weekly. I feel like every day a new problem arises, which increases my anxiety. I am mentally stressed due to my physical health issues. I want to know how to restore my gut health and feel normal again. I feel that these problems started after taking Covaxin, and it has left me very anxious. What should I do?

I have been experiencing abdominal pain and diarrhea for the past 2 days. My stool test shows infection with Giardia lamblia. My doctor prescribed Ornidazole 500 mg, 2 tablets per day for 5 days. I would like to know whether Metronidazole is more effective than Ornidazole, or if Ornidazole alone is sufficient for treating this infection.
