Could Left Side Stomach Pain Be a Concern?
Side stomach left side pain

Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 9th Jan '25
Experiencing discomfort on the left side of your abdomen can arise from various factors, such as gas, digestive issues, or muscle strain. Other possibilities might include kidney concerns or, in some cases, conditions related to the spleen. To ease any discomfort, consider applying heat, staying hydrated, and monitoring your diet. If the soreness persists, becomes severe, or is accompanied by other symptoms like fever or vomiting, I encourage you to reach out to a gastroenterologist for a thorough evaluation. Your health is important, and a doctor can provide the best guidance tailored to your situation.

Meri Nani hai jo bahut din khana na khane ke wajah se bahut serious ho gya hai . Abhi khana kha Raha hai to vahe vomiting kar deta hai
Female | 60
This may be as a result of several factors. A popular cause may be a stomach bug or food poisoning. These can upset the stomach and therefore make the person vomit. Give her water to drink little by little and if she feels better, she can try bland foods like toast and crackers which will help her stomach. If she still vomits, she might need to go to see a gastroenterologist quickly to check if everything is fine with her.

Male | 20
Your symptoms like chest discomfort, gas, acid reflux, constipation, and post-meal vomiting indicate stomach issues. Reduce portion sizes. Avoid spicy, greasy food. Stay hydrated. Antacids might help soothe your stomach. However, if these don't improve your condition, you should consult a gastroenterologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Hello doctor can I take esomeprazole whenever I get symptoms on and off for example only for a day
Female | 26
If you are having symptoms like heartburn, digestive laxatives, or acid reflux on and off, it is advisable to avoid esomeprazole as a self-medication. The possible reason for these symptoms is the malfunction of your stomach acid. However, talking with a gastroenterologist will enable you to arrive at the appropriate treatment alternative. Taking esomeprazole without appropriate consultation may not eliminate the actual cause of your symptoms.

I have sharp pain in my lower left stomach
Female | 19
That sharp pain in the lower left side of your tummy could be diverticulitis. It happens when the pouches lining your colon become inflamed or infected. Symptoms include pain, bloating, fever, and bathroom troubles. To help, drink plenty of water, eat foods high in fiber, and avoid nuts and seeds. But if the pain is severe or doesn’t go away, see a gastroenterologist immediately, as this condition requires medical attention.

He says sometimes he also has headaches, burning sensation in eyes. Symptoms are increasing with time. He also had stomach ulcer, around 7 years back what can be the possible diagnosis?
Male | 19
Your friend seems to have gastrointestinal bleeding, likely from his prior stomach ulcer. This can lead to bloody stool, bloating, cramps, weakness, and dizziness. The headaches and burning eyes may stem from blood loss. He must consult a gastroenterologist for proper treatment, as unaddressed bleeding can pose severe risks.

Hy, my name is Siba. I'm 27 years old. I'm facing a problem of heartburn and acid reflux in my stomach and throat. I'm unable to drink even water because it causes burps and there is continuous gas traped in my stomach. Kindly guide me what medicine should I take. Thank you!
Female | 27
It seems that you are having a problem with acid reflux and gas. Various factors such as diet, stress, or other diseases can lead to these symptoms. To get some relief, go for over-the-counter drugs like antacids, and proton pump inhibitors if your pharmacist approves them. Furthermore, eating small meals more often and cutting out very spicy or acidic foods may help. Being up and about after finishing your meal can also make things easier. Still, because the mere water is problematic, you should consult a gastroenterologist who gives a correct diagnosis and individualized treatment.

I am 49 I am getting stomach pain because of eating nuts
Male | 49
This might be a condition called gastritis. The nuts you eat can irritate your stomach lining and cause you discomfort. Typical signs of gastritis are pain in the upper abdomen, bloating, and nausea. To ease the pain, try avoiding nuts for a while and eating easily digestible foods like bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast. In addition, water intake can also be soothing. If the pain continues, it would be better to consult a gastroenterologist.

What happens when you eat food after a fly was on it
Female | 42
If you consume a fly that has landed on a food item, then you may become unwell. Flies are the source of growth factors (germs) that can cause you to get sick. In the aftermath of eating contaminated food, you may encounter stomachache, vomiting, and diarrhea. For recovery, you should drink adequate water, take some time off, and not eat more of the same food.

Constipation is a condition when you find it difficult to regularly to poop. It may be that your health conditions are the reason for it. Fiber-rich foods, such as fruits and vegetables, as well as plenty of water, are important. Additionally, try to incorporate some more physical activity into your daily routine, even a short walk can make a difference. Speak with your gastroenterologist to find other safe ways to control your constipation without using too much sodium picosulfate.

You have discomfort in the lower abdomen. After sex, you might be dealing with a mild infection or inflammation. It might be the reason for pain and gas problems. Throwing up after meals may also indicate digestive system troubles. If the pain continues, visit a gastroenterologist for further examination.
