What Causes Constipation, Indigestion And Abdominal Cramps While Treating Entamoeba Histolytica Infection?

Hi Doc,recently past 4-5 months I started getting constipation, a feeling of fullness in the stomach, abdominal cramping at times and Indigestion. My food habits have been irregular meals because of my job.however I checked my stools and found Entamoeba Histolytica cysts. I travel a lot and have started taking Isabgol which is a natural fibre which has helped me considerably. What do you suggest ?

Hi thanks for your question.
You have diagnosed amebiasis.So now start the drug metronidazole or tinnidazole for few days.
Along with that take care not to eat outside food.
Take healthy nutritional diet for few day.
fruit juices helpful.Take semisolid diet more as compare to solid with green leafy vegetables.
After getting cured from amebiasis mostly digestion sunsequentially will be normal.
If still you have problem then we will do further work up.
I hope my suggestion will help you.
