Dr. Liu Zhengxin
If bowel movements feel incomplete, medications such as Lactobacillin tablets or Zhengchangsheng can be taken orally for one to two weeks to regulate intestinal flora imbalance. If symptoms are not effectively improved by medication and dietary adjustments, it is recommended to undergo a colonoscopy to confirm diagnoses such as bacterial dysentery, chronic enteritis, or intestinal polyps. Patients are advised to drink plenty of water, pay attention to their diet, and avoid spicy and irritating foods as much as possible.
