Yes: That is one possibility and the easiest to correct. Get on a probiotic ( over the counter) and take it daily and see if that helps.. If symptoms persist beyond two weeks, despite doing thT, then see either a gastroenterologist or colon & rectal specialist. The pharmacist can help with the choice of probiotic.
