Hello, I ve been having to use the bathroom every 30 mins and every time I do I is liquid and yellow and has a sort of slim or mucus coming out. I don t know if it s something I should worry about or if it s normal, it s been going on for 3 days now. Thank you
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of frequent bowel movements which can be due to many reasons for symptoms you mention in query
- Infection by H. Pylori bacteria - Gastroenteritis - Medication reaction or side-effect - Irritable bowel syndrome
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to avoid eating heavy and spicy , eat small and frequent meals. You should take plenty of fluids to rehydrate body. If condition doesn't get well then consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor may order certain tests like endoscopy and stool test and take history . Doctor may prescribe loperamide , ornidazole along with anti inflammatory. Eat 1-2 banana in a day and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
