Gaining weight 5 years after gastric sleeve
Why am I gaining weight five years after my gastric sleeve surgery?
Bariatric Surgeon
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.

Feeling stomach problems for the past two weeks
Male | 25
You've been feeling upset for a couple of weeks. One typical reason could be a stomach bug or some food that you consumed that did not agree with your stomach. The symptoms can be stomach pain, bloating, gas, and sometimes diarrhea. To assist, drink lots of water, consume plain foods such as rice and toast, and then get some rest. If it does not improve soon, it is advisable to consult a gastroenterologist.

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.

Male | 17
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.

Female | 38
The most common cause of hard stools is a fiber-free diet coupled with dehydration and lack of exercise. You should include fiber-rich foods, such as fruits, vegetables, and cereals into your diet together with water drinking. Nevertheless, if the pain persists or gets worse, contact a gastroenterologist to give you modulation.

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.

Female | 21
The lower abdomen pain you are going through is pretty uncomfortable. Your symptoms are concerning and it's essential to address them. The pain, diarrhea, and the urge to pass stool after your period can be caused by different reasons like pelvic inflammatory disease or endometriosis. It's advisable to get medical help from a gastroenterologist for a correct diagnosis and treatment plan.

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.

I had to reduce bilurubin levels from 1.4 to 0.5 how to reduce
Male | 23
It is first critical to establish the underlying cause of excessive bilirubin in the body to lower bilirubin levels. In certain instances, water intake increase or alcohol and fatty food avoidance would be a good choice. Yet, in a lot of instances, medicated intervention becomes inevitable. I would suggest seeing a gastroenterologist for a comprehensive diagnosis and personalized treatment options.

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.

Your liver looks a little stressed. The ALT level is high, which shows possible liver damage. The Alkaline Phosphatase is also elevated. Causes could be alcohol, fatty liver, or medication side effects. Eat healthy foods. Avoid drinking alcohol. See a gastroenterologist for more tests.

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.

Hi - i have Mistakenly swallowed clingen forte tablet. Is this an are of concern? Should I rush to hospital?
Female | 28
Gulping down Clingen Forte's tablet inadvertently is a source of alarm. It is composed of Clotrimazole that can cause dizziness, discomfort, nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea. Please, tell your family doctor or the nearest hospital emergency room if you feel any of these signs. Another alternative for you is to have a colonoscopy, which is a diagnostic procedure done by a gastroenterologist.
