Suggest Treatment For Loose Stool When Diagnosed With A Polyp
I have started having a change in my BM s. Not every day, but several afternoons I have either diareah or mud like texture bm s. I don t feel sick at all, but it is quite bothersome. It s like they leak or ooze out. I am 65 & have had a recent colonoscopy which did show a polyp so I have to have a recheck in 5 years.
Usually, polyp does not give diarrhea, unless there is mucosa inflammation.
Guidelines at present are: - Consume more liquids - Diet should be avoiding excess dairy fat, high cholesterol, non veg stuffs - Addition of fresh yogurt, organic fresh fruits - Get prescription of GI antibiotic with metronidazole and pro biotics with lacto bacillus with your doctor - Consult your gastroenterologist as per the progress
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
