Hi,

As per your complain you have problem of loose stool and abdominal pain that may be because of food intolerance or infection or intestinal condition. Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis. Stool sample test is helpful to detect any infection present or not. Colonoscopy can done if needed for further diagnosis. Lack of high fiber intake in diet also cause loose stool. Detail history and investigation give exact idea about problems.

I hope my guidance helpful to you. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thanks,
Dr. Rachana Goswami
