Since you have recently completed steroid tapering and are continuing mesalamine (Mesacol), do not stop or reduce your gastroenterologist’s medicines Take Kutaj Ghan Vati 2 tablets twice daily after food. Bilwadi Churna 3 g twice daily with lukewarm water after meals. Musta Churna 2 g twice daily after food. Diet: Soft, easily digestible food: rice, moong dal, pomegranate, boiled vegetables. Avoid spicy, fried, oily foods, alcohol, and excessive tea/coffee. Your CRP (2.1) and ESR (8) are reassuring, but persistent mucus may indicate mild ongoing inflammation. Continue follow-up with your gastroenterologist and seek review if blood in stool, increased frequency, fever, or abdominal pain develops.
