I am suffering from constipation since 1 week
Male | 25
The condition indicates difficulty with bowel movements. It could happen if you don't eat enough fiber, do not have enough water, and do not have enough physical activity. Symptoms are abdominal fullness, dry, hard stools, and sluggish bowel movements. Please, consider advice like incorporating fruits, vegetables, and complex carbohydrates into your diet to relieve the symptoms. Daily physical activity and increased intake of water will facilitate the process as well.

My father used too chew tobacco from past many years now sometimes between some interval gaping He starts being unhealthy not able too digest food problem in digesting I get Tensed why is it happening
Male | 47
Chewing tobacco can be the reason for not digesting food properly. The chemicals in it can damage the stomach lining, thus facilitating indigestion. The solution is to stop chewing tobacco and watch if things change for the better. And if the condition persists, consult a gastroenterologist.

Hello , I have pain in my lower abdomen below my belly button and continues over my belly button and when I press my belly it hurts on the right side , I have COVID and I had some gastrointestinal symptoms could this be something more serious like appendicitis? I also have gas and burping
Male | 22
It's important to seek proper medical evaluation and treatment for your symptoms. Abdominal pain can be caused by appendicitis. And Covid 19 can also cause gastrointestinal symptoms. Inform your doctor about your symptoms, medical history, and covid19 status. Gas and burping alone are not specific to appendicitis.

Hi, I have been throwing up everytime I eat, have bad pain above my belly button and habe really bad trapped burps and bloating, my poo is also yellow, blood tests habe come back fine, not sure what it could be
Female | 21
Your symptoms of vomiting, pain around the belly button, trapped burps, and yellowness may be related to a condition called gastritis. Gastritis is often caused by excessive stomach acid or a bacterial infection and can lead to these symptoms. Eating smaller meals, avoiding spicy foods, and taking antacids can help relieve the discomfort. If your symptoms continue, it's important to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I am a 51 year old female and I have been having diarrhea and squishy poops and sometimes the poops can’t come out so I have to use my finger to get them out, so I am wondering why I keep getting these symptoms?
Female | 51
Having diarrhea or soft poop could be due to many things such as infections or food sensitivities while difficulty passing stool could mean constipation. You need to eat more fiber, drink plenty of water, and also go for a medical check-up to know exactly what is wrong with you.

i’m 16yo I’ve had the flu for 5 days now and my dr prescribed me with ibuprofen for my fever and headache but it caused me to develop an ulcer i got sudden stomach cramps like the type where you need to poo so i went to the bathroom my poo was red i did some research and i think it might be GI bleeding i’ve been to the bathroom 5 times since and every time there’s been blood every time i’m worried but my mom won’t take me to the hospital, she says we can go tomorrow
Female | 16
Red poop can be a symptom of bleeding in the digestive tract, which may be caused by the ulcer and ibuprofen. Stomach cramps and frequent visits to the bathroom are also the reasons for this. This requires immediate medical assistance for the diagnosis and treatment. It would be better if you refused to wait until tomorrow.

So apparently whenever I eat I feel like throwing up and I 'vent had my period in two months but no I'm not pregnant again just recently I was diagnosed with ulcer so what could be the problem?

Hello. Two weeks ago, during weight training, I had a sudden pain in my lower abdominal. It was so painful that I could not move. I thought it might be cramping, but it worsened every second and in addition, I did not have any period for almost 4 months. I am 15 years old. Though, earlier in the morning before I had this unexpected pain, I had a little spotting. I have then been to the emergency room, where after 3 hours my pain stopped. I have been suspected with a small cyst rupture, however, there was no evidence indicating that the cyst had ruptured. We have done both lab works and an ultrasound and everything was absoultly normal. It is also important to mention that I had a cyst a year ago, but then it disappeared as we did another ultrasound, but for the last year I did not check it. 3 days after my pain, I have done another ultrasound and everything was fine. Another thing to mention, during the day I was at the ER, I came home and I had straight blood when I peed. The next day everything was absolutely normal without any spotting neither red or brown, everything was clear. Since then I have been having pain when I am doing sports activities and when my lower abdomendan is touched. (both left and right side). However, in the last couple days I have been having servere pain in my upper left abdomonen. When I had that terrible pain, it was mainly on the left side. Currently I am having severe pain on my upper left side, and additionally I always have a pain of hunger that feels as my stomach is sore and burns. What is going on? Can it be related to a spleen? Gastritis? Maybe there was not cyst burst?
Female | 15
The pain in your lower stomach area might come from many things. The lab tests and ultrasounds being normal is a good sign. Your pain during sports and left upper stomach discomfort could point to things like a swollen stomach lining or problems with your spleen. Talking to a gastroenterologist is important to find out what is causing the pain and get the right treatment.

Good day I am a 31 year old and I have been experiencing burning sensation in my stomach for the past 2 weeks
Female | 31
Acid reflux is a condition that might be the reason because it is characterized by the backflow of stomach acids into your food pipe. This can happen if you eat spicy or fatty foods, or lay down soon after eating. To distract yourself, try the meals fatter, spicy foods, and no lying down right after eating. Besides, you need to be hydrated and if the burning continues then you better get guidance from a gastroenterologist.

Female | 24
If the patient has the symptoms you have mentioned, along with the results of Helicobacter pylori 019 and high calprotectin, the patient needs to see a gastroenterologist for more diagnosis and treatment. These signs could be suggestive of diseases, like gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, or inflammatory disease bowels.

Digestive system not work properly
Male | 23
If our stomach isn't functioning properly, it can cause bloating, gas, and digestive problems like constipation or diarrhea. These issues might arise from eating too quickly, not drinking enough water, or stress. To improve digestion, try eating slowly, drinking plenty of water, and consuming more fiber-rich foods like fruits and vegetables.

Dear Doctor, From last 10-15 days I am having upset stomach with cramps and gas build up, it seems the stomach has become hard and full and despite of having light foods my stomach gets upset and have to visit the washroom quite frequently, the stool is not watery but semi liquid, I'm also taking probiotics like curd and Rinifol Capsules but also it doesn't help much and have taken the full course (5 days) of antibiotics like Zenflox OZ but didn't get much of relief. I would request you to please suggest me good medicines for the same. Thanks and Regards
Male | 41
Your signs of upset stomach, cramps, gas, and frequent semi-liquid stools have led us to think that you might have a gastrointestinal infection or inflammation. You must remain hydrated by drinking plenty of water and steering clear of spicy or fatty foods. You might want to try some over-the-counter medications like Pepto-Bismol or Imodium if your symptoms are bothering you. Besides, go to a gastroenterologist to eliminate the possibility of any serious conditions and get the right treatment if necessary.

I was diagnosed with Antral Gastritis and Esophagitis LA grade B in endoscopy in March 2020, Taking ppi’s such as Veloz L, Veloz IT, Omeprazole, Ganaton Total since March 2020. Curretly, I am having indigestion, malnutrition, stomach upset and gastric since long time, sometimes nauseous, will spray recover my b12, are these issues related to deficiencies, if yes, after how long will stomach issues improve?
Female | 35
Your low B12 and Vitamin D levels, along with gastritis and esophagitis, can be the root cause of your digestion problems and malnutrition. The oral spray can assist you with increasing the level of your B12. Continue to take your medications as prescribed and follow up with a gastroenterologist for further guidance.

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to discuss my ongoing gastrointestinal issues that have persisted despite my recent surgery for chronic constipation and rectal prolapse. I underwent a laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy, but I am still experiencing significant problems related to anal hypotension and hypocontractility, as well as prolonged Balloon Expulsion Test (BET) results indicative of Type 1 Dyssynergia. Despite the surgical intervention, I continue to struggle with inadequate anal sphincter tone and a reduced ability to contract effectively. These issues have led to ongoing difficulties with bowel control and frequent episodes of constipation. The prolonged BET results suggest that my pelvic floor muscles are still not coordinating properly during bowel movements. Given my history and the current symptoms, I would greatly appreciate your expertise in identifying the next steps for management. Specifically, I am interested in exploring options such as pelvic floor rehabilitation, biofeedback therapy, or any further diagnostic evaluations that may be necessary to address these issues effectively. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your guidance on how we can best proceed to improve my condition.
Male | 60
These issues might be due to problems with the pelvic floor muscles not functioning properly during bowel movements. Pelvic floor rehabilitation could help by improving muscle coordination and strength in the pelvic area, potentially aiding in better bowel control. Another option is biofeedback therapy, which uses sensors to teach you how to coordinate your muscles during bowel movements. Discuss these options with your medical team to find the best approach for you. Additional diagnostic tests might be needed to understand the situation better.
