Hi,
Your symptoms suggest that the abdominal pain you have has nothing to do with your physical work-outs.
The pain in abdomen which you feel as hunger contraction,must be constant pain due to inflamed bowel. The cause of such colitis can be bacterial/viral/parasitic.Scanty loose motion consists of mucus/pus/blood-which forms exudate of the inflammatory process.
- maintain fluid levels by taking lot of boiled water with ORT powder .
- have light,easy to digest food . Rest is helpful.Anti spasmodic medicines available over the counter mostly control the condition within3-4 days.If the symptoms persist, Microscopic examination of stools are indicated to pin point the causative organism.
Please consult a doctor for physical examination. He will then prescribe specific drugs for complete relief.
Thanks
