Stomach pain with loose stool

2026-02-18 18:31:31
Hello I faced loose motion( just water) yesterday. I have had a recurrent stomach pain with loose stool and acid reflux for the last few days. The stool is semi-solid and I have been passing it 4-5 times a day. Here's what I have tried after consultation: 1. Zifi 200 with a probiotic (VSL 3 / Visbiome) 2. Alfox TZ with Nem Pass Both the options don't seem to be effective. What should be my next step? Could you please advise?

Likely acute gastroenteritis with post-antibiotic gut imbalance. Stop unnecessary antibiotics. Maintain hydration with ORS and light diet. Continue probiotic 5–7 days. Start PPI for reflux. Avoid spicy/oily foods. Do stool tests if symptoms persist beyond 5 days. Seek urgent care if fever, blood in stool, dehydration, or severe pain develops.
