Hi,
I really appreciate your concern, looking to history and symptoms given here such condition can be treated for chronic protozoa infection and best drug of choice could be Tab Doxycycline 100 mg once in day, Tab Metronidazole 400 mg twice in day for seven days, if the possibility of worm infestation needs to be clear then better to get done the stool examination for this, (If not worm detected at the time of defecation).
Hope this information helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Akhtarhusain Shaikh
