Hello, I am Dr. Romain Rajan, General Physician. I understand your concern â It sounds like you're dealing with a common cycle of gut issues, where the antibiotics from your earlier viral illness may have upset the balance of your digestive system, leading to loose motions and now constipation, gas, and discomfort.
Advices
Increase your water intake significantly to help soften stools and aid movement.
Try incorporating fiber-rich foods like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables into every meal to regulate your bowel movements.
A spoonful of Isabgol (Psyllium husk) mixed in a glass of water at bedtime can be a very safe and effective way to manage constipation.
What to Monitor
Note any changes in the frequency and consistency of your stools.
Be watchful for mild warning signs, including persistent or worsening left chest pain, fever, or the inability to pass gas or stool for more than 48 hours.
Managment
You may try a safe, over-the-counter stool softener like Lactulose for a few days to ease the difficulty in passing stools. Please avoid self-medicating beyond this, as the correct treatment differs greatly from person to person, especially since your recent antibiotic use has complicated things.
When to Consult a Doctor Immediately
Severe abdominal pain or swelling that does not go away or keeps getting worse.
Blood in your stool or dark, tarry stools.
Vomiting that prevents you from keeping down fluids and food.
Every patientâs situation is unique. For an accurate diagnosis and lasting relief, itâs important to discuss your full medical history, the details of the antibiotics you took, and your current symptoms in detail.
ð You can reach out to me directly for this case, and also connect with me in the future for any medical consultation.
