Diarrhea, Extremely Hot To Touch, Red Streaks In Last Stool. Reason ?

Hello Dr.
Yesterday i started having diarrea. I was extremely hot to the touch, but i was freezing. My stool isnt watery its more like thin pieces that look like some are connected by some goopy looking spit. Today though, there were little red lines all through my last stool. I dont know what it is. Im kinda freaking out. I dont know if they are worms or what but eveything im reading online is just starting to freak me out. I just need to know.

Hello.By now you must take isotonic drinks for rehydration and astringent diet: rice, chicken, apple, banana, carrot, white fish.
Also ,You must collect a sample of your stool(containers sold in pharmacies for it).Go to your doctor as soon as possible.He will examine you, he will request-perhaps- a test for stool analysis and he will establish appropriate treatment.
I wish you good health.

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.

Your history and explaination suggests that you are suffering from infection in intestine, may be dysentery or gastro enterites. The redness may be streak of blood. Get one stool examination and complete hemogram once and consult your doctor for further management. You may require antibiotic with anti spasmodic and anti inflammatory drug. Now you can take plenty of fluids (with electrol powder), anti secretary like cap. racecodotril and paracetamol for anti inflammatory. Hope I answered your question.
Feel free to ask me if you have any further queries.
Wish you good health. Take care.

Regards
Dr. Lohit
