Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i just finished my period on Monday - got the flu Monday night but after taking cold and flu i feel better (head) but my stomach hurts and i feel really nauseous - been hurting since Monday - and to note: when i went #2 yesterday there was blood in with my stool ???
Hi. Thanks for your query. Read the history and understood the problems. You have got a flu and are getting OK with medicines. The appearance of blood in the stool and pain in abdomen and nausea can be due to Stomach flu or an active infection of the intestines. The blood in the stool can be due to piles also.
I would advise you the following: Get an examination of the anal area for fissure and piles by proctoscopy. If present, get treated accordingly by mild laxative if you have hard stool, take plenty of water orally, have Sitz bath in a tub of warm water. If no fissure or piles, take a 5-day course of an antibiotic, metronidazole and Probiotics, multivitamins. I hope this all will settle in a few days if you take proper care.
