I am attaching my report. Please explain what it means. Is there any medicine to relieve patchy hyperemia in the antrum, which suggests gastritis? I have had indigestion for five months, and my stools are thin, and I sometimes feel a burning sensation in my stomach. When I eat foods such as rajma, chole, paneer, milk, soybean and chicken, I often feel stomach discomfort for two days, and my stool becomes loose. Please explain in detail and help?

Patchy hyperemia means irritation or inflammation in the stomach lining, likely gastritis. Avoid spicy and heavy foods, eat smaller meals, and continue antacids or PPIs as prescribed. Probiotics may help. It is usually not serious but should be monitored.

I had loose smelly stool and some pain. I started with Zenflox OZ. I also have celiac. My report says budding yeast in stool positive. What should I do?

Doctor please check my report I have attached below. Occult blood shows trace. What does trace mean. What could be the reason for it. Is it something serious or something to worry about? Please help doctor.

My baby was born premature and is now 4.5 months old. He is exclusively breastfed and has had loose motions for the last 10 days. For the first three days, the stools were watery. We consulted a doctor, who gave Bifilac GG twice a day and Zinc and Vitamin D 0.5 ml once daily. Now the stools are not watery but still very loose, seedy, and bubbly. Stool frequency in 24 hours is 3 to 6 times. Stool test shows pH 6 and reducing substance positive. The doctor has suggested stopping breastfeeding completely and giving lactose-free formula milk. He has no other symptoms, is active, and is gaining weight steadily. His current weight is 6.3 kg. Please suggest if breastfeeding should be stopped and what should be done regarding the loose motion?
