Patient's Query

Hi. doctor,

I am currently 18 years old. I suffered from diarrhea, vomiting, and stomach pain for ten days. I took the antibiotic Taxim O 200 mg and capsule VSL-3 for seven days. Now, my diarrhea and vomiting are under control, but I have severe right-side abdominal pain that worsens after eating. I had blood tests done, which showed that my vitamin D level is 8.56. I also had a whole abdomen ultrasound, which revealed mural thickening up to 18 mm involving the cecum and right iliac fossa, showing echogenic fat surrounding minimal fluid. I had a laparoscopic appendectomy nearly 1.5 years ago. I also suffer from body pain and weakness. Please suggest a treatment.

Hi,

We welcome you to icliniq family.

I appreciate the confidence you place in me for your healthcare consultation.

I understand your concern.

Regarding your symptoms, you have the following diagnosis: acute diarrhea. I suggest you take the following medicines:

  1. Tablet Acetaminophen 500 mg orally three times a day.
  2. Tablet Metronidazole 400 mg orally three times a day.
  3. Tablet Hyoscine butylbromide 10 mg orally twice a day.
  4. Capsule Co-Amoxiclav (a combination of Amoxicillin and Clavulanic acid) 500 mg orally.

Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with them, and take the medicines with their consent. If your symptoms persist, schedule another appointment for follow-up via chat, phone, or video consultation.

I hope this has helped you. Please feel free to reach me again, in case of further queries.

Thank you.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
