Hello,

It seems to be digestive dysfunction and the most common cause could be chronic infection either it is the bacteria or protozoa or both together such case can be managed empirically with tablet Ofloxacin with Ornidazole twice in a day for five days.

Digestive disturbances, lost digestive power either the symptom or diagnosis is not proper, actual symptoms should be mentioned very clearly like it is the abdominal pain, abdomen distension with pain or without pain, nausea or vomiting, diarrhea, dyspepsia and others like that but here the given complaint is not helpful, your detail history with age of the patient and exact symptoms will be appreciated.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
