Suggest Treatment For Diarrhea And Lumbar Compression Pain

yeah, I ve been back in the States for about 10 now from a trip to Bali, Indonesia. I ve had pretty severe diarrhea ever since. I m also suffering from some lumbar compression pain from the nearly 24 hrs of sitting on planes. Right now I m not sure if its right kidney pain or just tight muscles from the messed up back and hip from the sitting. Any ideas?

Hi,

First of you, should know about diarrhea. If you have one or two loose stools without any dehydration or other symptoms like cramps in abdomen, then you do not need any treatment. You can tell more about your condition. Second, we cannot decide whether your lumber pain is from right kidney or from back muscles. As kidney pain have other symptoms too, so it is simple musculoskeletal pain due to traveling. You can use simple paracetamol if pain cannot relieves with rest. you are free to ask anything.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shahid Akbar, General & Family Physician
