What Causes Difficulty To Digest Any Kind Of Food?
Hello Sir, I m vinay here. I have a strange problem in my stomach for the last 3 yrs. I m not able to digest any kind of food, particularly spicy food, milk n wheat. Also there is a severe gas problem, which is very very embarrassing n irritating one. My body weight has reduced drastically n very low body strength. I consulted some experts in B lore n taking medication for the last 2 yrs. They have done with Colonoscopy n Endoscopy as well, but couldn t rectify d disease. This is even harrassing me psychologically, as my life has become stagnant ever since this problem has arisen. Hope u would help me. Thank you

Hello,
The possibility of chronic intestinal infection is likely, the condition has to be tested for this and stool culture sensitivity is a must or else condition can be managed with Tab Metronidazole for seven days.
Change the diet, avoid taking oil and fat contained food, avoid taking spicy food. Given symptoms can be due to acid peptic disease, and for that, I would suggest having Omeprazole with Domperidone once in a day.
And it has to be taken for few weeks, last it can be IBS irritable bowel syndrome it is a kind of functional disorders if it is the stress you have then try to come out of this.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
