hi. You need to start Gandharvahastadi kashayam twice daily before food, 15 ml mixed with 60 ml lukewarm water. This will improve your digestion and help with bowel movements. If your appetite is really good, start taking sukumara ghrtam 20 gm every morning. Take Chitrakadi vati 2 tab before food. if your stool is not passing well after taking these medications please reach out. i need to take better history and go through all your reports
