Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 30th Aug '24
This medication is prescribed for a specific reason. Rifaximin is an antibiotic that is used to treat bacterial infections in the gut, while propranolol is used to treat heart conditions. When they are taken together, they could influence the way your body deals with them. It may be safe, but it's important to have a gastroenterologist monitor you closely so you can avoid any possible problems or interactions.

I am 17 year old boy from three days I see blood in my stool and a little pain. This happens before but after one or two days it gets okay .
Male | 17
Someone may see blood in their stool sometimes. Hemorrhoids and a small tear in the anus can cause this. It may be constipation or inflammation that's causing your pain. To help with this, try drinking more water, eating foods rich in fiber and not pushing too hard when you go to the bathroom. If these measures don’t yield any results within a few days consult a gastroenterologist who will give you appropriate advice tailored for you.

It seems like you might have morning sickness symptoms, even if not pregnant. Feeling unwell throughout the day, aversion to some food, weakness, and crying without clear triggers are typical indications of this. Sometimes, it can result from hormonal adjustments or stress build-up in your body. Attempt consuming little portions frequently, keep yourself well hydrated and get plenty of sleep too. If these signs persist, see a gastroenterologist who will help rule out other underlying issues.

My dad and brother (aged 49 and 9) have recently had a stomach bug (gastroenteritis) 17-19 days ago are when the symptoms began. Tomorrow I will be sharing a hotel bedroom and bathroom with them both, will I contract the stomach bug?
Male | 49
You may likely catch the stomach virus if you are in close contact with your father and brother who had gastroenteritis. Better to be on the safer side to ensure that activities like hand washing, drying utensils, and disinfecting common surfaces are done. When you suffer from symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal pain, see a gastroenterologist.

Male | 21
This can happen when you aren’t drinking enough water, or maybe even because of certain foods you eat. Throughout the day, try to drink more water and avoid new food items that you don’t typically consume. If it doesn’t seem to improve after a few days, then visit a gastroenterologist.

I have blood in my stool, no pain, only a discomfort while passing stool, feeling like stool is not clear, sometimes pain in my lower a abdomen. What should I do now?
Female | 45
You could be experiencing what is known as gastrointestinal bleeding. The blood in stool may come from various causes such as piles or inflammation. This incomplete bowel movement might be what’s making you feel uncomfortable and not fully relieving yourself. If there’s pain in the lower part of your tummy, it could signal something wrong with the intestines. Ensure that this matter is addressed by a gastroenterologist to establish the exact problem and receive appropriate treatment.

Male | 36
You might have hemorrhoids. These are enlarged blood vessels in the anal canal that can bleed and hurt. They usually occur after periods of constipation when people strain too hard during bowel movements or sit for long periods without taking breaks. You should eat more fiber-rich foods such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while also staying hydrated by drinking at least 8 glasses of water each day. If your symptoms persist or worsen despite these efforts then I recommend seeing a gastroenterologist.

My stomach hurts a lot and also my lower back I want to go to the toilet but I am scared of bleeding.
Female | 17
You may be suffering from a fissure in the anus. It is a small cut in the skin lining of the anus, which can cause pain and bleeding during bowel movement. Probably, the constipation is the reason why the fissure is more irritated. To relieve the situation, a high-fiber diet, drinking more water, and avoiding exertion when defecating may be helpful. You may also use over-the-counter creams for the pain and burning feeling. If the symptoms stay or worsen, urgent attention from a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis and medical precautions is crucial.

I am ramesh. I have loose motions from last 15months. I was used some medications. When I am using medications, the problem comes down and after that the problem remains same. Some of the foods not digesting properly. Please suggest any solution. Due to loose motions high burfing is comming from buttock.
Male | 29
Several things can cause this such as infections, food intolerances, or underlying health issues. Since you haven’t been cured completely by any drugs, it’s good to concentrate on your eating habits. You should stay away from spicy or oily meals and go for those that are easy to digest like rice, bananas, and toast. Ensure that you drink a lot of water so as not to be dehydrated and think about including probiotics in your diet to help with gut health. If this problem continues then please seek medical attention from a gastroenterologist.

Male | 63
For severe constipation, especially with your long-term diabetes, it's important to address this carefully. Overuse of laxatives like Laxet can worsen the problem. Increasing fiber intake, staying hydrated, and regular exercise can help. However, for immediate relief and to ensure it's safe given your medical history, please consult a gastroenterologist. They can provide appropriate treatment and manage any underlying issues.

Female | 37
The issues could be connected to the medicine you were given. In truth, sometimes Escitalopram, also called Nexito, is capable of causing side effects such as tingling sensation and sleeping disorders to the patients who take it. Inform the doctor and be involved in the treatment process.

I'm having anal fissure and spasm and it's very painful and itchy
Female | 20
You tear the skin around your butt when you have an anal fissure. Passing a hard stool can do it or having the runs can too. This causes pain, itching, and spasms. To ease the discomfort, use creams or ointments. You should also try eating more fiber and drinking plenty of water so that your stool is soft.

I have piles . I want to help
Male | 18
Hemorrhoids, also known as piles, are enlarged veins located in the anus or rectum area. These swollen vessels may cause discomfort, irritation, and bleeding when having bowel movements. Excess pressure on the blood vessels results in piles forming. Contributing factors include difficulties passing stools, being overweight, or prolonged sitting periods. Preventing piles involves consuming fiber-rich foods, drinking adequate water regularly, and avoiding straining during bowel movements. Incorporating gentle exercises can also prove beneficial. If piles develop, over-the-counter ointments and creams offer relief temporarily. However, consulting a gastroenterologist regarding any concerning symptoms is advisable.

Water keeps coming out of the mouth
Male | Yaran
It may be that excessive drooling is what you have. Certain medications, and how the muscles of your mouth work can cause this. To help with it, try swallowing more often and sitting up straight. Have a cloth nearby to wipe away any saliva that bothers you. If this does not stop soon, try talking to a doctor about why they think it is happening.

I'm experiencing pain in lower right side of abdomen from 2-3 weeks. Today I was feeling nausea with pain for few minutes in a particular fixed pain area where pain everytime occurs.
Male | 25
You're feeling sick. That pain in your belly may be appendicitis. Your appendix, a small sac, could be inflamed. Nausea, steady pain - those are warning signs. You need to see a gastroenterologist soon. Leaving appendicitis untreated is risky. If it's appendicitis, you'll likely need surgery. They'll remove your appendix to prevent complications.
