Hi Mr Singh ! Do you eat frequently from outside ? If so, you may be having some kind of intestinal infection, amebiasis being the most common which may be causing this problem. You may get yourself reviewed by your treating doctor, who may advise you for some routine blood tests, and may be an ultrasound/ CECT scan of your abdomen to rule out any other chronic infection giving rise to such symptoms. Wishing you an early recovery.
