Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Doctor, I have only clear liquid and mucous bowel movements, accompanied by an upset stomach with groaning noises and gas about one hour after eating. It started about two weeks ago. Miralax and Metamucil only makes for one semi solid bowel movement, then the cycle starts all over. Is it a bacterial infection ? It seemed to start shortly after eating pizza on a Sunday night.
Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern. Some advices that I can give to you are : -Stay hydrated -Consume probiotics.They are sources of “good” bacteria that work in your intestinal tract to create a healthy gut environment,for example aged soft cheeses,beet kvass,cottage cheese, kefir -Common medications include,bismuth subsalicylate (Pepto-Bismol and Kaopectate),loperamide (Imodium) -Foods to eat include bananas,rice (white) Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I'll be glad to help, thanks!
