I've been dealing with ongoing diarrhea for the past couple of weeks. It's strange because I'm not getting dehydrated or feeling tired, but when the abdominal pain hits, I have to rush to the restroom. I've noticed that sometimes the stools are loose, but not always; they're mostly normal. I've tried taking Lomofen tablets, but they don't seem to make a difference. Could you help me understand what's going on?

The common causes for your breath to smell like feces are sinus and respiratory infections (such as bronchitis, viral colds, strep throat), poor oral hygiene (infrequent cleaning, chronic dry mouth, oral infections, smoking or chewing tobacco), Gastroesophageal reflux disease, abscessed tooth, prolonged vomiting (> 24 hours) and bowel obstruction.

I've been taking Follihair capsules for about five days now, right after lunch, and I've started having a pretty bad stomach and diarrhea. Is this normal and safe to keep taking, or could it be a side effect of the capsules?

I've been waking up with small blood spots in my spit, and sometimes there's pink mucus. I was diagnosed with antral gastritis after an endoscopy. My HR CT scans of the neck and chest came back normal. I also deal with acid reflux. The first time I noticed blood, it was after a day of vomiting on an empty stomach, really forceful stuff. An ENT specialist mentioned a tear in my throat might be the cause, and after a while, the bleeding stopped. But now, two months later, it's happening again. Could you help me figure out what's going on?
The recurring blood spots and pink mucus in your spit, despite normal HR CT scans, may be related to your antral gastritis and acid reflux, which can cause stomach acid to flow up into your throat, leading to irritation, minor tears, and bleeding, so consult your gastroenterologist to adjust your acid reflux treatment and consider a follow-up endoscopy to assess your gastritis.
