Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Good afternoon or evening. I m a typical man that doesn t go to hospitals unless is really necessary. The main problem that I have right now is that for the past few weeks I have been in a constant diarrhea condition and it s coming out really, and I mean, dark red. NO pain whatsoever anywhere though. Not taking drugs, only multivitamins. The thing is that is getting to a point where incontinence is becoming a problem. I m hoping is something I can cure with an over the counter medication. Thanks for any help, Hector
As you mentioned you have problem of diarrhea and blood in stool that may be because of diverticular disease or ulcerative colitis or other reasons. Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis. Detail history and investigation give exact idea about problems. Start a treatment as per reason behind it.. Colonoscopy examination can done for further diagnosis.
I hope this will help you. Get well soon.. Thank you.
