Recently, I had the flu and a sinus infection. During that time, I noticed what appeared to be string in my bowel movement. It happened several times, then went away as I got better. I am now getting flu symptoms again, and have noticed the string in my most recent bowel movement. Simultaneously, I have had a rash appear on both legs. I am a 52 year old female and have been in good health.
Thanks to ChatDoctorI can understand your concern flu is due to infection of virus, which may occupy in Castro tract this cause string like situation in bowel movements. Rash appearance on legs indicate TH viral infection in blood, so I would like to suggest once have a test of CBP, ESR, CUE and blood culture .please take antihistamine like Atari 25 for 5 days once daily. Antibiotic like azithromycin 500 once daily for 3 days and acecloplus for 3 days . Tab .pan 40 once daily for 5 days. Avoid cold and cold ten, not to roam in overcrowded area be in isolation room as it spread to other family members ok don't worry it will subside once report come consult your family doctor or Chat Doctor continue medication.OK
