Hello, I m experiencing burning stomach pains when I push to poop. The pain lingers after pooping. Stool seems normal and I m pretty regular. I do not feel constipated but I feel I have to go quite often. Just curios what this could be and the next steps to take.
Hi. Thanks for your query. Read your history and understood your problem. Burning in abdomen at passing motion with normal stool consistency, no constipation but feeling of having to go again and again. This is due to colitis or enteritis, meaning inflammation of the intestines. I would advise you to take a course of 5 days of an Antibiotic and metronidazole and I hope you will be fine. If there is no response after 5 days you obviously need further investigations like colonoscopy and other relevant tests of blood, urine and stool as per asked by a Gastroenterologist.
