Suggest treatment for typhoid fever and blood in stool
Patient: hi,a few months back i was under treatment for typhoid fever and on the 6th day i had a bloody stool...doctors adviced me to go for a colonoscopy and the byopsy reprt said that it's non specific colitis...i am 25 years old. Now i am fine, my stool is perfectly normal. Was it due to the typhoid fever that i developed bloody dyssentry for 1 and a half days. Doctor: Hi thanks for asking question.You have bloody stool in past.It may be due to amebic or shigella dysentry.You have diagnosed non specific colitis and now you have no problem.So nothing to worry about it.This bloody stool may be because of thyphoid ulcer bleed or dysentry.So just now you just do your stool examination for further confirmation.Avoid excess spicy food for few days.Drink more water and shift your diet for few days with fruits more and green leafy vegetables.So just now no worry.If symptoms apprear again then we will decide about to whether start treatment or not.Thanks. I hope i have solved your query.
