[|Human|] Hello, I have had a slight squeezing feeling in my descending/sigmoid colon for a day now and followed by urgency to defecate, I took an imodium at onset and 18 hours later my urgency is back and after passing normal stool, I m now passing flaky stool, not watery at all just flaky, is it likely just IBS?
[|AI|]  Hi, I did review your concern. The problem you are describing can be due to multiple conditions including IBS, guardians, mild infection, malabsorption and so on. The best next test would be a stool examination test for ova, cyst, parasites, fat, blood and neutrophils. I would also recommend you to go see a Gastroenterologist for a detailed work up. Treatment for IBS then can be started after ruling these conditions out. I hope this helps. Wish you a healthy life.
