Question

I'm trying to figure out what the medicine department at a hospital like AIIMS or RML is all about. What do they specialize in exactly? If someone has a stomach ache, is it okay for them to go to the medicine department?

I'm having some trouble with my digestive system and it's starting to worry me a bit. I've been noticing blood in my stool, and I often feel the urge to go to the bathroom multiple times, but my stomach still feels like it's not completely clear afterward. My stools have also become quite narrow. Could you help me understand what's going on and maybe suggest a stool test that I might need?

I've been struggling with IBS for quite a while now, actually, it's been ongoing since I turned 34 and I'm from Bangladesh. I'm really hoping to find a permanent solution to this. Is there any treatment available that could finally put an end to my IBS issues?

Question

I'm experiencing upper abdomen pain and loose motions, and my family doctor said it might be because of the augmentin 625 tablets I'm taking. I started using BIFILAC as he suggested, and it worked, but whenever I stop taking it, the loose motions come back. I'm not sure what's going on. I'm new to Bangalore, and I'm wondering if it's the change in food that's causing this. Could you help me figure out what's happening?
