Detailed Answer:
Welcome to H.C.M.

I have gone through your question, your attached pics and understand your concerns.

No need to scare because it’s looking due to infection. Pinkish stool associated with diarrhea is common problem and it is usually due to bacterial infection in adults.

I advise my patients to follow these steps-

1) Complete blood count and stool sample for laboratory examinations.

2) Replenishing water loss is important so plenty of fluids and Oral Rehydrating Solution.

3) Avoid spicy foods, and take Light food including Bananas, rice, toast and curd in diet.

4) Tablet- Combination of Ofloxacin 200 mg and Ornidazole 500 mg .

5) Sporlac XXXXXXX three times a day after dissolving in 1/2 glass of clean water.

No need to worry because it seems to be due to infection and after completing treatment you will be fine soon.

Hope this answers your question. Please do not hesitate for any query. I will be happy to answer your questions.
