48 saal ki age me 10 din se loose motion ke saath 4 kg weight loss casual cheez nahi hai â ise chronic diarrhoea maan kar investigate karna chahiye. Recent root canal ke antibiotics se C. difficile ya post-antibiotic diarrhoea ho sakta hai; iske alawa thyroid, diabetes, celiac disease aur colitis dekhne padte hain. Osteoarthritis ki painkillers bhi gut kharab karti hain.
Next Steps
Stool routine + culture, C. difficile toxin, CBC, TSH, HbA1c, electrolytes aur celiac serology karwaiye; painkillers abhi band kar dijiye aur ORS chalu rakhiye. Stool me blood, bukhar, ya pet me lagatar dard ho to admit karke jaanch zaruri hai.
