Do not underestimate how black stool points to possible internal bleeding of your digestive system, nor your symptoms of losing weight and having no appetite. This points to the start of a severe health issue that would be more likely benign than malignant. Besides, it's best to go through the colon and intestine diagnostics first as well as some other medical tests.

I have Lymph node in stomach. What it is?

Female | 30

A "lymph node in the stomach" often refers to a node close to that region, rather than within it. These small, bean-like structures aid our immunity. Swelling may stem from infections or other issues. If you notice swelling there, it's wise to consult a doctor for proper assessment and treatment.

Having stomach cramps, gurgling and diarrhea. Previous dr. gave medications on IBS, antibiotics All symptoms stop until the medicines are continued

Female | 16

There are chances you have Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) symptoms. When stomach aches, rumbles, and diarrhea occur, that suggests gut sensitivity. Antibiotics sometimes trigger these by disrupting gut bacteria balance. To ease discomfort, consume mild foods like rice, bananas, and toast in small portions. Stay hydrated by drinking lots of water. If problems persist, it's crucial to consult your doctor again.

The disease is bleeding after stool

Male | 23

Noticing blood after using the bathroom might signal hemorrhoids. These are swollen veins in the rectum or anus, causing bleeding, itchiness, and discomfort. Straining during bowel movements, chronic constipation, or prolonged sitting can trigger hemorrhoids. To ease symptoms, eat more fiber, drink plenty of water, and avoid straining during bowel movements. However, if bleeding persists or worsens, consult a gastroenterologist for further treatment options.

I wanted to ask why is there blood in my stool? I have had some blood in my poop before because of hemorrhoids, but I'm concerned now because this time it was more than just blood on the toilet paper, it was also on the toilet water and in the stool. When I did try to poop, it was hard and some part was sharp too, which is making me think that it was because of that, but I googled why and it made me overthink that I might have a serious problem.

Female | 15

Blood in stool can be caused by different causes like hemorrhoids, anal fissures, inflammatory bowel disease, infections, polyps. But, since there is also blood in the toilet water, so it will be prescient to consult a gastroenterologist immediately. They can do the physical examination, suggest tests, and give the required treatment.

Female | 57

You are overwhelmed and things are running out of fuel for you after your morning walk and breakfast. The causes of fever infection can be a variety of things, such as being sick to the stomach, eating poisoned food, or the blood sugar level being high. This may be due to your high sugar levels lately. Ensure that you will be alright drinking water and hydrating yourself and that eating smaller lighter meals is the right idea. If vomiting persists, it is better to contact your doctor for more instructions.

Gastrointestinal problem

Male | 25

If your stomach is painful, aching, or swollen, it might be a gastrointestinal disorder. It can be due to the fast eating, low fiber in the diet, and the stress. The foremost solution can be eating more slowly having ample water with the fruits and veggies dose as possible and involving activities like deep breathing or exercise for stress from the appearance of this symptom. If you don't get any better results, consult a gastroenterologist for additional guidance.

I am 34 years old. I have stomach burnt and sometimes lower back burning & feet burning. And I am also coughing, I did X-ray, scan and ECG also hiv test. My hiv status is negative, all my x-Ray, ECG and scan results are perfect according to my health care.

Male | 34

Even though your HIV test, X-ray, ECG, and scan appear fine, it’s important to rule out more serious problems. Conditions such as acid reflux, nerve problems or lung issues could cause these symptoms. Lifestyle changes such as not eating spicy food; sitting up straighter than usual; drinking enough fluids every day etcetera might help relieve them. If they persist then please return for further evaluation from a gastroenterologist.

Female | 21

From your description, it seems what you have is an umbilical hernia. Therein, a little piece of your intestine may pop up through a weak part of your belly button, and as a result, a lump is formed. This may be the reason why you experience discomfort when pushing on your belly or while pooping. See a gastroenterologist for a thorough diagnosis and treatment, which can involve surgery to repair the hernia.

Worried and scared about having an endoscopy for iron deficiency anemia

Female | 49

It's completely natural to feel apprehensive before an endoscopy. This procedure helps identify underlying causes of iron deficiency anemia, such as gastrointestinal bleeding or ulcers. Common signs may include fatigue, pallor, or shortness of breath. Endoscopy is safe and typically well-tolerated, as it offers valuable insights for proper treatment. After the procedure, you may feel slightly groggy, but this will subside quickly. If you have lingering concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to your gastroenterologist for guidance.

Male | 26

Elevated liver enzymes can result from various factors, including fatty liver, as you've experienced. Symptoms like abdominal pain and nausea often relate to liver issues. It's encouraging that your tests showed improvement before but persistent discomfort warrants attention. I recommend keeping a healthy diet, avoiding alcohol, and maintaining a healthy weight. Monitoring your liver function with your doctor is essential. Please consult your gastroenterologist for tailored advice and to explore further testing or treatment options.
