Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,

Your indigestion and gas formation could be due to acute gastritis or,irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or inflammatory bowel disease or parasitic infestation (giardiasis).

You should undergo certain blood investigations with urine and stool examination for R/M and ova or ultrasound of abdomen or gastro-intestinal endoscopy(if required), if your are suffering from this problem since long time.

If you were my patient then I will give below instructions for some relief.

1) You should take frequent small feeds rather then two large meals.
2) Pain killers should be avoided if you are taking them.
3) Avoid carbonated drinks,caffeine products.
4) The food that you are eating should be chewed well .
5) You should walk for few metres after every small meal.
6) You should not lie down or sit on the couch immediately after meal.
7) Take high fiber diet,fresh fruits which will move easily in the gut.
8) Avoid excess oil,ghee and fatty or junk foods.
9) Do Yoga and Meditation.It will help you a lot.

You can continue with oflox-oz which is a very good drug specially in the treatment of gastro-intestinal infection but you should also take proton pump inhibitors like pantoprazole or rabeprazole which will reduce the excess acid production in stomach.

In spite of all these measures, if your problem persists then you should consult your family physician or gastro-physician who will know all the relevant tests that I have mentioned to rule out any disease in the abdomen and can prescribe you appropriate medicines.

Hope this detailed answer will help you.

Wish you good health,

Regards,

Dr.SandipKabra

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the follow-up.

Pantosec- d and oflox- oz are good,you can continue with that.

If you have not taken albendazole and above antibiotics yet,then you can go for stool routin-microscopy and ova- cyst but it won't be helpful if you have already started the medicines.

For mouth ulcers,

1) You should take tab.folic acid 5 mg daily once with vitamin B complex.

2) If ulcers are painful or burning,you can apply zytee gel to get symptommatic relief.

3) Take chlorhexidine mouth wash for gargling or saline water gargles will be also helpful.

4) If there is constipation, then you can use purgatives like syrup cremaffin plus in night time 3 tsf.

The ulcer will be healed in 5 to 7 days.

If any query then feel free to ask me.
