Brief Answer:
get your stool examined.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, I would suggest that you should get yourself clinically examined and investigated by your doctor.
You should get your stool examined for any infection or parasitic infestation.
I would advise that you should take an antacid like Omeprazole 40mg once a day before meals along with a probiotic. Digestive enzyme preparation containing pepsin and fungal diastase after meals will have added benefits.
If the reports suggest infection, you should take an antibiotic along with antiamoebic like Metronidazole 400 mg.
Eat light meals prepared under hygienic conditions. Also take care of your hydration.
Clinical evaluation by your doctor will help in planning further medical management.
I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
