Abdominal pain post typhoid could be residual gut inflammation or gastritis from medication. If it persists, further evaluation is needed. Avoid heavy food and continue light diet.

Question

Sir/Madam, good evening. I have been suffering from digestion problems for the last 40 days. On 10th April, I had fever along with 12 times loose motion, but I got relief after taking paracetamol. My body temperature stayed around 99.4 during the day and returned to normal in the morning and evening for the next 3 days. I took Augmentine 625 thrice a day and Hatric 3 twice a day for 2 days, after which I developed severe acidity problems. My doctor then prescribed me Pentoz DSR and Melzap MD for 7 days, but when symptoms continued, he changed my medicines to Pantoprazole DSR and Normaxin RT for 10 days, which gave me around 30 percent relief. Currently, I am taking Erojole DSR and Udinol 300 twice a day, and this has improved my condition up to 70 percent, reducing acidity, heaviness in the chest, and pain. I am attaching my LFT test and Widal test report. Could you please suggest what the reports indicate and guide me further based on my condition?

Question

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.

Question

My baby has been prescribed Enterogermina vials for 5 days because her stool report shows WBC 15 to 20/hpf, presence of mucus (+++), and reducing substances, even though she does not have diarrhea. She currently has no other symptoms but is feeding less than before, previously she drank about 90 mL of formula per feed, and now she only takes around 30 mL. Her weight has not increased in the last 3 weeks. Her birth weight was 2.188 kg, and she currently weighs 4.6 kg. How can I help her increase her weight and improve her milk intake?
