Stomach Bug, Loud Rumbling Noises, Spastic Colon

I was ill with a stomach bug last Thursday. Ever since then, my stomach has been making loud rumbling noises and even though the watery stools stopped yesterday morning (Sunday), it feels as though I need to go to the bathroom every 2 hours due to my stomach. I have a spastic colon and therefore, I am used to my stomach only going once a day, however, now it seems to be almos 3 to 4 times. Please help?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand this the sound that you hear could be peristalsis wave sound but if this is spastic colon then this sound is unlikely, the chances of some protozoa infection is likely, if I would be your doctor then I would treat this with the following medicines
1) Tab Ciprofloxacin 500mg twice day for four days
2) Tab Tinidazole 700mg twice in day for four days
hope this information helps you have nice day.
