Hi ! What is your dietary habits ? If you happen to eat frequently from outside, then it could be amebiasis which is troubling you and a course of anti amebic will solve your problem. However, as it has become chronic for you, you ought to see a gastro enterologist for a colonoscopic biopsy to establish the diagnosis before starting treatment for any kind of inflammatory bowel disorder. Good luck.
