Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
It may be Amoebic colitis and you may try a course of metronidazole.
USG Abdomen may reveal mesenteric adenitis or stone in the urinary tract.
Better consult your doctor to reexamine and get thorough investigation and treatment.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
