Dear Patient,

I'm so sorry to hear that. We call these alternating bowel habits- constipation and diarrhea intermittently.
This is not a good sign. You must consult a medical specialist immediately and let them run some tests.
Does your mom have any associated weight loss or lack of appetite? Kindly look into this and consult a medical specialist or gastroenterologist.

For further consultation, you can choose from our list of best Gastroenterologists in Lahore and seek in-person advice.
