Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello,

It seems to be an infection. Anyway, I would recommend performing a complete blood count, PCR for inflammation and a stool analysis.

Further tests may be needed (X-ray with oral contrast) or an abdominal ultrasound.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
