Could it be misdiagnosis with ulcerative colitis treatment?

Contacting you for my brother. He has been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis 18 years ago. There seems to be no remission phases though, even though he has tried several things - medication, alternative medicine etc. Could it be something else at hand? Maybe wrong diagnosing to begin with or a combination of things?

Answered on 22nd Aug '24

I'm sorry to hear that your brother is struggling with ulcerative colitis. Other conditions like infections or complications from long-term inflammation might also be causing his symptoms. He needs to see a gastroenterologist for a thorough check-up to rule out other possibilities. The doctor may suggest additional tests or treatments to help manage his condition better.

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.

Male | 23

According to your symptoms you may have a gastrointestinal problem. For effective diagnosis and management, you need to see a gastroenterologist. They can recommend some tests that are required for the diagnosis of the cause of your stomach ache and the bowel movements that are frequent. For the time being, please limit yourself to eating non outdoor meals and consume food that is easy digestible.

Am Sam I have malaria and on malaria drug but now feeling stomach upset when trying to eat and seriously loose appetite

Male | 28

It’s normal to get a tummy ache and not feel like eating when you’re on antimalarial medication. These medicines may sometimes bother your stomach. Remember to continue taking them, but try to ease the discomfort by consuming small and soft meals. Drinking fluids such as water or tea frequently could also be helpful. Should the symptoms persist, consult your doctor for further assistance.

I am a 23 year old female who suffer from a bloated tummy that's making sounds I am constipated and I have piles.

Female | 23

You seem to have symptoms of constipation which tighten up your tummy and produce such strange sounds. Piles or hemorrhoids can also contribute to these symptoms. Constipation means that you have a blocked bowel and experienced infrequent bowel movements. Piles are the swollen blood vessels in your bottom area. To remedy, get more fiber in your diet, drink plenty of water, and stay active as suggested. You can also use medicines meant for the external treatment of piles.

Hi.Almost 17 days ago I drink my syrup when I drink one spoon I notice that there was some broken glass pieces,very tiny like sugar.i don't know o swallow some or not but I am really worried now what should I have to do now ?

Female | 25

Swallowing broken glass pieces is scary. Small amounts might pass without causing harm, but they could still scratch your throat or stomach. If you're feeling fine, eating soft foods and drinking plenty of water may help it pass safely. However, if you experience pain, vomiting, bleeding, or difficulty swallowing, seek medical care immediately.

Iam 19 years old,male,I have gas leaking from my anus and it ruins my relationships, I have H-Pylori and I have duodenum inflammation. So I need help to get rid of this leakage.

Male | 19

You may have a problem known as anal incontinence. This term refers to the inability to control your bowel movements or flatulence. This issue may be connected with your H-Pylori and inflammation in the duodenum. When the muscles in the anus become slack due to digestive disorders, an individual may experience involuntary passage of wind. To control this complication, it is recommended that you eat a balanced diet containing fiber as well as avoid foods that can trigger it. You can also do pelvic floor exercises which will help in strengthening these muscles. Don’t forget to keep seeing your doctor concerning H-Pylori and duodenum inflammation because treating them can also relieve the signs.

I am 25 and I've been experiencing abdominal cramps, fever. The cramps are fine now. But now I have diarrhea and the stools are yellow and foamy and very frequent. I don't know what to do.

Female | 25

The following is an attempt to explain what could be the reason behind frequently going to the loo with a yellow, foamy stool and the way the body deals with unwanted substances. It is possibly diarrhea caused by the stomach flu or eating something that didn't sit right. To restore electrolytes, drink plenty of water and be properly hydrated. If you experience the loss of appetite, diarrhea, and vomiting that come with the condition, avoid high-fiber foods and processed carbs.

Hi doctor, um, good evening. I'm coming to you today contacting a clinic with an inquiry. (0:07) So I suffer from very bad anxiety and I recently got a therapist which was only like two months (0:14) ago or so. So within that time frame I've had blood tests done, total blood count and all of (0:21) that and it turns out that I'm not anemic. So within I would say like the past weeks or within (0:27) you know the past year or so occasionally I would get like you know stomach symptoms like diarrhea (0:32) or whatever which my doctor thought was probably IBS and I would get the occasional blood or whatever (0:37) when I strain and stuff like that. So um within the past month I was stressing myself out non-stop (0:45) like I'm constantly stressing but I'm hearing people saying now that I lost a bit of weight (0:50) but my stomach, weight, my legs, my whole body they're the same. I just seem to have lost weight (0:56) within my arms and it's making me freak out because recently today I had a bowel movement and (1:02) I saw the tad little bit of blood again and I've been constantly thinking that I have collateral (1:08) aka colon cancer at the age of 22 and it's really freaking me out and I seem to just cannot (1:15) stop thinking that I have that doctor and it's making my anxiety bad and it's giving me suicidal (1:21) thoughts due to the fact that I think that I have this cancer.

Male | 22

It see­ms you're worried about your he­alth, especially colon cancer. Having that cance­r at 22 is rare. Your arm weight loss could be­ from anxiety causing muscle loss. See­ing a therapist is good, but talking to your doctor about your worries may help re­assure you. Take slow, dee­p breaths and try relaxation methods to e­ase anxiety.

I’m wondering what is wrong with me or if I should go to the ER or make an appointment I’ve been having real bad pain on my left lower abdomen hurts when applying pressure to abdomen with stretching sometimes walking and flexing

Female | 26

A condition you see­m likely to have is appendicitis. Your appe­ndix is inflamed. The symptoms: stabbing agony in your lower tummy, mostly on the­ left, getting worse whe­n you apply hand pressure, bend, walk around, or fle­x your body. If you experience­ these signs, head straight to the­ emergency room, imme­diately. Appendicitis gene­rally needs surgical removal of the­ appendix to stop dangerous complications from arising.

You could have piles which are also referred to as hemorrhoids. The following indications could be the symptoms of piles if you see blood in your stool, feel pain or discomfort around your bottom, or notice swollen lumps. Piles occur when blood vessels in the area become swollen and inflamed. Eating fiber-rich foods, drinking water, and avoiding straining are some methods that can help alleviate the symptoms.
