Brief Answer:
as explained in details.
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read your fully history and understood your concerns.
As per the history you have provided, this looks to be gastroenteritis or even can be Enteric fever.
I would advise you the following:
- Send the stool for test.
- send the blood sample for CBC, Widal, Liver and kidney functions, sugar and as advised by your Doctor.
- Continue Providac and Ornidazole
- You may need a course of an antibiotic as would be seen as per the investigations and clinical evaluation by your Doctor. The smelly and sticky loose motions indicate intestinal infection. You need a valid prescription from your treating Doctor for antibiotics.
- Continue ORS/electral in solution form - one packet in one liter of boiled and cooled water.
- Use home-made fresh food - soft and bland diet.
- No non-veg of any sort at all.
- Boil the water for 20 minutes - make it cool and drink only this water.
- Also take activated charcoal tablets like gasex, bananas and curds.
- Take multivitamins and you have repeated intestinal problems and you need supplements.
I hope this answer helps you.
Please give feedback after proper management.
