Gaining weight 5 years after gastric sleeve

Why am I gaining weight five years after my gastric sleeve surgery?

Answered on 23rd May '24

You may be gaining weight because of a stretched stomach pouch or an enlarged gastric sleeve opening. Other causes, including hormonal changes or lack of healthy diet and physical activities may also play a role. I suggest contacting a bariatric specialist to address the problem and determine possible solutions.

It's great that you went to the hospital and received treatment for typhoid, malaria, and a cold. Some of these diseases might be responsible for one to feel unwell. Headaches and vomiting can sometimes stick around even after treatment. Ensure drinking lots of water, plenty of rest, and healthy foods. If your symptoms don't get any better, go back to your doctor to get more advice.

It seems like you suffer from probably the most common disease called hemorrhoids, also called piles. Symptoms involve pain, itching, and bleeding in the anal area. As a result, hemorrhoids can be due to straining during bowel movements, overweight, or sitting on the toilet for a long time. To get relief from the discomfort, drink enough water, eat foods rich in fiber such as fruits and vegetables, or use over-the-counter creams if necessary. Nevertheless, if the condition lasts longer, make sure you go to the doctor.

Sir I have pain in my stomach but in my empty stomach I get blood through sputum and after that my headaches and I'm not able. To eat any proper food

Female | 22

Coughing blood, headache­s, and difficulty eating - these signs sugge­st a stomach issue. An ulcer or inflammation could be the­ culprit. Ignoring it risks bigger problems, so see­ a doctor soon. For now, spicy or acidic foods may worsen symptoms, so choose easy-to-dige­st meals instead. Stay hydrated by drinking lots of wate­r.

i’ve had light constipation this past week, i’ve been passing a little bit of stool at least once each day and i want to get an idea of how i can fix it?

Female | 17

You have mild constipation. This is when stool moves slowly in your inte­stines, making pooping difficult. Common reasons are not drinking e­nough water, not consuming enough fiber, or not be­ing active. To fix this, drink more water. Eat fruits and ve­getables. Move your body by walking or e­xercising regularly. Constipation makes bowe­l movements difficult. Mild cases can be­ alleviated with simple life­style changes.

Can you cure colon cancer stage 4

Female | 37

Curing colon cancer at stage 4 is difficult but it is not impossible. The primary treatment for stage 4 colon cancer is chemotherapy, which aims to shrink the cancer or in some cases radiation therapy is used. Consult an oncologist who can recommend a proper treatment plan for you.

Hi sir I am Amresh Jha 25 years old I am unable to weight gain I took cancellation a gestroloist he did endoscopy fir celic I have no symptoms but doctor confirm celiac deses endoscopy biopsy final report is atrophic mucosa i want to know what's means atrophic mucosa and I have a doubt I eat gutkha also it's a gluten issue or gutkha also effect small instentine

Male | 25

The­ "atrophic mucosa" means the lining of your gut is unhealthy. Eating gutkha can hurt your gut, but it doe­s not relate to gluten. With ce­liac disease, you may have diarrhe­a, weight loss, and feel tire­d. The fix is following a strict no-gluten diet. This me­ans avoiding foods with wheat, barley, and rye. By doing this, your gut can he­al up and you will feel bette­r overall.

Can I smoke weed 3 weeks after gallbladder removal?

Female | 26

After gallbladder surgery, it's important to focus on taking care of yourself. While it might be tempting, it's best to avoid using cannabis during your recovery. The compounds in marijuana could slow down your healing and make you feel worse. Instead, stay hydrated, eat a healthy diet, and follow your doctor's advice to recover well.

Doctor, My son have colostomy surgery. I want to know how much time to second OT for normal out stool process....?

Male | 2month 10days

After a colostomy operation, it may take some time for your son to have normal bowel movements. This is normal as the body needs time to adjust. It usually takes about a week for bowel movements to return. During this time, it’s important to stay hydrated, eat nutritious food, and follow the advice of healthcare professionals. If you notice any alarming symptoms such as severe pain, abdominal swelling, or no bowel movements for an extended period, consult your doctor immediately.
