What Causes Diarrhea And Abdominal Pain?
Hi I’m I’ve been having off and on episodes of diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, unintentional weight loss, abdominal pains sharp and cramping dull. Fatigue as well. Diarrhea and severe cramping happens for a few days and then lightens up for a week and returns. This has been going on for over a year.

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Diarrhea and abdominal pain may be due to infection or irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel problems or infections or malobsorption syndromes or food Intolerance etc...
Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Avoid spicy food and alcohol avoid smoking and caffeine drinks.
Use probiotics twice a day for five days. Avoid dairy products and gluten contain food.
use tablet normaxin twice a day for five days.
If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per my clinical experience, there can be various issues associated with chronic diarrhea as:
- inflammatory bowel disease
- malabsorption disorders
- chronic intestine infections
- liver, bile drainage or pancreas problems
- dietary factors
- endocrine issues as thyroid imbalance
- others.
As there must be enough trial of different molecules since 1 year, I recommend to systematically evaluate the condition with necessary lab tests, CT scan of abdomen & pelvis with colonoscopy for best diagnostic and management approach.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
