What Are The Causes Of Constipation, Bloating, Stomach Pain And Cramps?

Hi,

Haven't pooped in days but have been bloated, had really bad stomach cramps & pain. Went to the toilet this morning with great relief and my stools were long, brown and easy to pass however the longest stool had a lot of white mucus/ milky stuff in with about side of grape plus attached to it were strings like tree roots, coming out of it (also white).

Any advise?

Hi there,

Thanks for your query.

You apparently passed worms in the stools. Worms caused bowel obstruction, due to which you did not poop for several days.

Take a single-tablet of Albendazole (400mg) and repeat the same after 3 days. It is a deworming agent which will kill the worms/their eggs in the intestine and expel them in stools.

If you find my response helpful and informative, do not forget an “excellent” (5-star rating) to my answer, to ENCOURAGE ALL doctors- engaged in social service- to render sound advice to the FREE queries.

Take care
