Suggest Treatment For Diarrhea And Blood Clots During Stools
Hi. I was sitting down before dinner and got a really bad stomach cramp so I rushed to the bathroom and had diarrhea but when I wiped it was really bloody and I looked in the toilet and there was a blood clot. I was fine after for about 45 mins then the cramp came back with more bleeding and clots. Is this something I should be worried about and go to the hospital or can it wait for a doctors appointment?
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of diarrhea and blood clots during stools . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like gastroenteritis , food allergies , lactose intolerance , giardiasis , irritable bowel syndrome or appendicitis. Need not to worry. For now eat light and non spicy , take antacid after every meal, drink plenty of water and take light walk after every meal. I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for proper examination. Doctor may order ultrasound , endoscopy or stool test. Doctor may prescribe omeprazole , lopramide , ornidazole or albendazole. You should take small and frequent meals and avoid taking large meals at at time.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
