Hi.
It seems from your history that your bowel habits have been to go twice for passing stools. Solid stools is normal but if hard then we need to consider the probable diagnosis.
Also the pain in abdomen makes us believe that thre may be some associated problem.
Hence I would advise you the following:
First of all, start taking regular diet, missing fod in the morning has no role in bowel habits.
Take more fibers in diet like green leafy vegetables.
Take plenty of fluids.
Consult your Doctor for clinical examination and request for all relevant investigations.
Send sample of stool for three days, this may help to get a probable diagnosis of say
amoebiasis, worms and so on and get treated accordingly.
Ultrasonography of abdomen.
Tests of blood to see for any deficiency and get corrected.
Stool softeners may help to have soft yet well formed stools.
If still no relief then
consult a Gastroenterologist and get a
colonoscopy and
biopsy too and additional management.
If all the reports are normal then this may be
IBS that is
irritable bowel syndrome and control of
stress and
anxiety helps a lot.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
