What Causes Abdominal Distension And Clear Liquid In Stool?
Question: The other day I had really bad abdominal distension and gas until i passed a large amount of clear liquid in my stool. The next morning there was fresh blood in my stool. The following days I have passed relatively normally with no symptoms other than slight abdominal discomfort and a strange sensation of warm liquid that seems to be free floating in my abdomen. I.e. if I lay on my right, it travels to my right side. Also after I eat I get this sensation of warm water dripping down my abdomen. What is going on??
Brief Answer:
May be gastroentritis
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing in
It seems you have had gastroentritis
May be after a contaminated meal or liquid
I would suggest you take plenty of fluids orally and a good probiotic twice a day
If this does not help in a day or two, get your stool examined and take antibiotics according to the stool report
Hope this helps
