I am a 29 year old single female. I have been experiencing stomach pain and diarrhea for several months. I consulted a gastroenterologist, who suggested that stress or IBS might be causing these symptoms. He prescribed Tab Novamcin RT, Cap Imodium, and Tab Revortil. After taking the medicines for a month, my pain and bowel issues improved. However, now I feel a heaviness above my navel. My doctor repeated some tests: TSH: 1.71 CRP: 3.46 mg/L Hemoglobin: 11.3 g/dL ESR: 110 mm/hr PCV/Hematocrit: 35.5 percent RDW(CV): 15.2 The doctor prescribed the same medicines again and added Tab Meganeuron OD, but the heaviness around my navel persists.

Your test reports show mild inflammation (CRP, ESR) and slightly low hemoglobin, which may be linked to stress related IBS. The navel area heaviness could be from abdominal wall strain, gas, or tension. Since your pain and motions improved but heaviness remains, its likely residual from IBS or weak digestion. Try adding probiotics, warm water bottle, and gentle yoga. Also, get an ultrasound and stool test to rule out hernia, infection, or gut issues. Consult gastroenterologist if symptoms persist or worsen.

View allMy baby is 10 months old. Ascaris lumbricoides was seen in her stool test report. Please tell me what this is and what the treatment for this worm is? My doctor has suggested that, since she is only 10 months old, we cannot give any medicine until she turns 1 year. Please advise.

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.

My wife has been suffering from constant stomach pain for the last 15 to 20 days. We visited a doctor and had a blood test that confirmed typhoid. She has been taking medication prescribed by the doctor for one week. After that, we did another blood test and stool examination as advised, and the doctor said the typhoid is cured, but there is still a stomach infection because there is some blood in the stool. She was given another three day course of medicine, but there has been no improvement. Please suggest what we should do next.
