Brief Answer:
More likely collits

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for writing in

Though the information provided is inadequate it appears more of IBS and/or collitis

Do you have difficulty in passing stool ?
Mucus or blood in stool ?
Feeling of inadequate defecation ?

Get a stool microscopic and culture done

In the mean time start a good probiotic twice a day and get back to me with the reports

Regards

Brief Answer:
Manage Your Stress

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for writing in again

It is better you manage your stress levels with Yoga and/or meditation else you will end up in psychosomatic disorder and it will be difficult for a gastroentrologist to manage you

As of now you have no symptoms of cancer so just reassure yourself apart from the fact that you have a normal CT

Also get back to me after you have the reports with you

Wishing you a healthy life ahead

Brief Answer:
Stress can cause loss of appetite

Detailed Answer:
Hi
As I discussed with you earlier manage your stress
It surely can reduce your appetite
Few pus cells in stool are insignificant yet I would suggest you take Ornidazole 500 mg twice a day after breakfast and dinner for 5 days
Unfortunately as per the forum rules I cannot share my personal email address with you
You may talk to the customer care for uploading reports
Hope this helps

Brief Answer:
Upload the report

Detailed Answer:
Hi Thanks for writing in again
It would be better if you upload the Endoscopy report
Yes continue with the medication I have prescribed
Uni enzyme will not cause any harm but I doubt if it will correct malrotation of the gut
Do upload the report and I will be able to help you better

Brief Answer:
Could be muscular

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for your followup

With the reports turning our normal you should be a relaxed fellow

I have seen the upper GI Endoscopy report, it is normal nothing to worry about

The pain in flanks could be muscular, if you do not have any urinary symptoms

As the stool report is normal the chances of collitis are ruled out so I would suggest you take a muscle relaxant twice a day, continue with probiotic and if the pain does not respond in 48 hours go for a urine examination

Hope this helps

Again manage your stress

It is very unlikely that you have cancer with the information that you have provided
I would suggest you take a good Probiotic twice a day for ten days and manage your stress levels
Anal pain can be because of a fissure for that you need to see a surgeon and get examined
Hope this clears your doubts

Continue Pan 40 twice a day for 15 days followed by once a day for four weeks
