Can Stress Cause Abdominal Pain And Loose Stools?
Hi...yes, thanks. I have been having loose stool of varying color for about 3 months now. No regular stool passing during this time. It is sometimes coincides with mild stomache aches, but not often. I eat pretty healthy, This has coincided with a sustained period of stress at work and I'm wondering if this could be stress related, an ulcer, or something along those lines. Any thoughs? Thanks Michael

Hi,
Looking to the history it seems that this problem might be due to stress called spurious diarrhea.
As you got this problem since long, another cause might be having chronic gastro-intestinal infection, bacterial or protozoal.
Avoid stress.
Go for one course of ofloxacilin, tinidazole combination medicine course for 5 days.
Avoid junk food.
Ok and take care.
