HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the symptoms of chronic diarrhea then it may be due to dysentery and ideally stool needs to be sent for culture sensitivity test but till then it can be managed with Tab Doxycycline 100 mg once in day with Tab Tinidazole 750 mg twice in day for 5 days, such chronic condition really needs lot of work up for right diagnosis hope this information helps.
