Have Abdomen Pain, Diarrhea. Took Vitamin Supplements Earlier. What Could Be It?
I have been having painful diarrhea, the pain is in my lower abdomen in the center usually. It's just extremely tight, and sharp along with cramps. I can't hold it usually either. The urgency forces me to drop whatever I'm doing so I can go to the bathroom to relieve the pain immediately. Its usually only a small hanful of soupy runny orange diarrhea with a foul smell. It is not watery. This has never happened before, the onset was overnight and its been ongoing for 4 days now, with an urgency every 2 hours or so. The only change I have recently had is I started dieting and eating a lot of nuts (which I discontinued and am still having the problem) and I started a vitamin (which I have taken in the past with no problem). Any ideas? Thoughts?

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for calling H.C.M.Forum.
You have pain full dysentry, pain at lower middle of abdomen.
It is a dysentry due to amoebic infection or may be an infection of the colon By bacteria or intolarance to certain foods like diary foods, or gluten containing foods.
Of course intolarence possibilities are very less as it is a recent occurence.
I advise you to consult a gastro enterolagist for diagnosis and treatment.
You may have to use anaerobic antibiotics, anti spasmodic, etc for relief of the symptoms and infection.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.
Best regards.
