General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi ! Do you frequently eat from outside ? Is so, then it is due to intestinal amebiasis which you developed by infected food/water from outside. Ornidazole is an anti amebic drug, and so you got relief from it. But the symptoms must be recurring due to re infection of by ameba which is a very common infection as such. I would suggest you to take care in the food and water you consume, and then you will be alright. In the case of no relief, you have to consult a gastro enterologist in your area. Good luck.
