Hi Shelly,

Thanks for your query.

From the information provided by you, the possibilities are :-

* A simple amoebic infection. A 5-days' course of anti-amoebic treatment will cure it. Along with it, also take a deworming course.

* Early stage of Inflammatory Bowel disease (such as Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn's disease); or, early diverticulosis.

* Irritable Bowel Syndrome (particularly if you are passing through mental stress/anxiety with or without depression.

* Bleeding piles.

I will therefore recommend the FOLLOWING COURSE OF ACTION :-

# First, take a 5-day course of anti-amoebic drug --> if no response,

# GO IN FOR COLONOSCOPY early detection and appropriate treatment.

Consult your doctor and apprise him of my opinion. I am certain that he agree with me, order required tests, and- based on the reports- will prescribe suitable treatment as advised.

If you find my response helpful and informative, do not forget an “excellent” (5-star rating) to my answer, to ENCOURAGE all doctors- engaged in social service- to render sound advice to the FREE queries.

Fond regards and have a nice day,

Dr. Rakesh Karanwal
