Hi,
Noted the history for treatment for lumps in legs, followed by loose stools, indigestion and loss of appetite, treated with Norflox TZ, then Zifi-O probiotics and so on but the stools remain loose.
I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Get the stool tested for a few days.
Blood tests for CBC, thyroid, liver and kidney functions.
Check for water or food source and rectify it for possible source of infection.
Take boiled for 20 minutes and cooled water.
Fresh home made food only.
Identify the foods that cause loose stool as this varies from person to person and stop such foods and beverages.
Take curds and banana.
Continue Zifi-O, probiotics to complete the course of 5 days.
Further management as per the reports of stool and blood tests.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
