Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, it seems that you might be having infection of the gastrointestinal tract and need proper medication.
I would advise that you can take Metronidiazole 400 mg thrice daily along with a probiotic and an antacid for relief from your symptoms.
A stool examination and clinical evaluation by your doctor will help in planning your further medical management.
I hope this is helpful to you.
Regards. Thanks.
I find this answer helpful
