Irritable bowl syndrome

i was traveling around Asia and started having Diarrhea 5 days ago and stopped after taking immedoium , Its been 2 days now and i have problems go to the bathroom. i can feel the need to go but nothing comes put and i have to push hard and a small amount thats pasty comes out. it all started when i had sushi (which i have been earing it before). need help as i wont be back in the US until 3 more days

It may have been food poisoning from the sushi which may have been off. After diarrhoea, you will have emptied your bowel so you will have problems going for a few days. Imodium will also cause this. Wait a week and ease back into fruit to get your bowel working again. If no better after this, see a doctor for advice.

Hi mikeny, the key is not to get dehydrated, drink lots of clear fluid, water is best. If you can get some salt replacement type drinks, even if you can’t eat something with just vitamins and minerals and water and essential salts in might help. Avoid fish i suggest. Be really guarded what you eat. Good luck, hope you feel better soon
