Today morning toilet time red blood coming which problem name what is solved sir/Medam
Male | 31
If you saw red blood when you went to the toilet this morning, it might be due to hemorrhoids. These are engorged blood veins in the rectum or anus. Such signs are as follows: bloody stool, pain around the anus, and itching. It is suggested to increase water intake, include fiber in your diet, and avoid lifting heavy things during bowel movements.. In case the bleeding still occurs or if you have extreme pain, it is necessary to make an appointment with a gastroenterologist to diagnose the causes and find the proper treatment.

It seems like you are experiencing constipation. Constipation refers to the difficulty in having a bowel movement. It may happen to people who have an insufficient amount of fiber in their diet, drink less water, or are less active. Eat fruits and vegetables, drink a proper amount of water, and take a short walk. If the issue persists, the best step will be to have a conversation with a gastroenterologist who will give you some advice.

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.

Male | 21
An anal fissure could cause the pain radiating from your spine to the anus. Weakness in legs might occur too. Your stools looking powder-like when dissolved in water points to a potential digestive issue. It's crucial to see a gastroenterologist for proper evaluation and treatment to manage these symptoms.

I have constipation from last 1 month.And no pressure during morning and evening toilet. I applied lots of pressure but nothing happened. Also only gas pass during toilet.
Male | 21
It can mean that your intestines are not moving fast enough when you have trouble passing feces and only pass gas at times. Lack of fiber in the diet, not drinking enough fluids, or physical inactivity can cause this. Eat more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains; drink plenty of water and be active to get things ‘going’ again. If it persists, see a gastroenterologist for further assessment and advice.

im 17 years old, i have this stomach ache in the morning yesterday even right now. I try to eat and poop but still it hurts even also when im laying on bed and sitting down. how can i avoid this pain what should i do and dont?
Female | 17
There are a lot of things that can give someone a stomach ache - like eating too much, eating spicy food, or being nervous. Try eating smaller meals more often instead of three big ones. Keep away from spicy foods entirely and make sure to drink plenty of fluids every day. Don't lie down right after you eat something either. If the pain sticks around after doing all these things, go to a gastroenterologist for a check-up.

I am a teenage female. Late last night my stomach started to hurt and throughout the night it got progressively worse. The pain is in the upper right abdomen and it radiates towards the top middle too. I’ve taken Advil but it won’t go away. What should I do?
Female | 15
You might have an issue with your gallbladder on the information I have got. It is in the upper right side of the stomach. The area on your right hip with either an inflamed or stone gallbladder might give you severe pain that will sometimes get worse and affect the upper portions of your body. Pain-healing medications like Advil will not be very effective for this type of situation. Consult your doctor for proper diagnosis and examination to get a cure for your condition.

See a gastroenterologist specialized to diagnose the disease and provide the appropriate treatment. Not changing the drug while the condition is still the same, gives room for the situation to deteriorate.

Female | 70
Abdominal pain can be diverse, with causes such as indigestion, constipation, or stomach viruses. It's important to watch if the pain is strong, if there is vomiting, or if she has a fever. Urge her to drink water, have a rest, and stay away from heavy meals. If the pain doesn't go away or worsens, visit a gastroenterologist.

My name is Sylvia I started experiencing sharp pain on the lower left side of my stomach which radiated to the hip it eased abit after taking some painkillers but I'm also getting nausea could you please advice
Female | 25
It sounds as if you've developed some lower left abdominal pain with a prospect of the pain spreading to your hip. Painkillers are lessening the pain to a small extent, however, you're feeling nauseated too. These symptoms can be the signs of an issue in your digestive system like gas, constipation, or even a stomach virus. It's necessary to drink water, eat light foods, and sleep. If there is no improvement, the best thing to do is have a wellness check-up with a gastroenterologist who can properly diagnose and treat you.

Hello. I have been diagnosed with underactive thyroid since 3 weeks and I was prescribe with L Thyroxin 25. On the 1st week I started to take it everyday in the morning 30 min before breakfast, everything was fine. Then on 2nd week, I started again my birth control pills which is Asumate 30. And from the moment that I have started again my birth control pills and the L Thyroxin 25, I have been having diarrhea problem for 2 weeks until today still on going. I am not sure what is the issue , can you help please ?
Female | 28
I think you might have a stomach upset. When you take birth control pills with L Thyroxin, you might experience diarrhea. This could mean that the combo is affecting your gut. Keep yourself hydrated and consider taking the drugs at different times during the day. If it doesn’t stop, talk to a doctor so they can advise accordingly.
