Suggest Treatment For Diarrhea

I have continued one month of loose stool. I was traveling a lot back home in India, in between I caught dysentery with mucous stool, I went through medication needed for it with tablets and then, I had to travel to Delhi and Sweden, without getting proper . after continued medication the pain and mucous was gone, and the interval between defecation time lessened, but after returning back to Singapore I still have the problem of stool not tight enough and watery content and the stool itself comes out of sedimented or fragmented kind and still there is a bit of mucous in it because of its slippery content. I have lost a bit weight also, none of the medicines I consumed helped drastically to harden the stool. I am having disturbed sleep for the last two days and sometimes my stool has absolutely no smell and sometimes a slight sourish one, but its always with water and fragmets of solids which sediments dirtlike in the water
