I had ulcerative Colitis many years ago. In june this year i had a tummy bug that was going round, only lasted 1 day. After that i began getting abdominal pain so got Predsol enimas from my doctor, these helped. Now, whenever i spend a penny, i always have leakage from the back passage. What could have happened. I am 64yrs old and otherwise in good health.
HI. Thanks for your query. Read about your history of ulcerative colitis, tummy bug and leakage from back passage. It is possible a secondary infection of the gastrointestinal tract. I would advise you a course of 5-day antibiotic, metronidazole and supportive medicines like probiotic, multivitamins, Activated charcoal tablets. Review after 6 days if no relief. Then to undergo all relevant investigations like blood sugar, thyroid function tests, urine, stool and ultrasonography and colonoscopy. Start on the proper melamine and such medicines under the guidance of a Gastroenterologist if there is no relief.
