Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a 42 year old female with some soft stool/diarreha for the past few days. I noticed yesterday that i have bright red blood floating in the toilet, in my stool and small blood clots. It is not as I wipe...like hemorrhoids... but on and in the stool itself.
Hello dear I understand your concern Your symptoms could be due to internal piles, inflammatory bowel disease/proctatitis, gastroenteritis, polyp. I would suggest to consult gastroenterologist and undergo rectal examination, routine blood tests like CBC, ESR, CRP, stool tests, fecal calprotectin, USG scan, sigmoidoscopy if needed Specific treatment depend on cause. Antibiotic like ofloxacin and ornidazole will help to cure infection Steroid and meselazine will help to treat inflammatory bowel disease Take plenty of warm water and take soft & home made food Take diet like banana, applesauce, rice and toast Hope this may help you Best regards Dr. Sagar
