HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, first thing you need to do is get it confirm whether this is Amoebiasis or not and for that you need to get done the stool culture sensitivity, if you are sensitive to Metronidazole group of drug then with the help of culture sensitivity the problem would be solved, hope this information helps, take care.
