Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The given history of diarrhea could be due to antibiotic that you have taken. It is drug induced diarrhea and it may not need any medicine. Most of the time it is a self-limiting condition but in certain cases where the symptoms are long lasting; probiotic like lactobacillus can be tried.

If you try some medicine for this then the condition may flair up. If symptoms remains same even after taking the probiotic, then stool need to be sent for culture sensitivity test.

I hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you have any further questions.
Regards,
Dr. Akhtarhusain
