Couldn't eat anything coz of gastritis and I'm only taking avocado juice for almost a month. I feel fatigue and have headaches with dizziness.

Female | 29

Gastritis can make eating hard, and having avocado juice isn't giving your body all it needs. Symptoms like fatigue, headaches, and dizziness can happen when you lack essential nutrients. To feel better, try eating small, gentle meals. Foods such as oatmeal, bananas, or toast can be friendly to your stomach. Rest and stay hydrated as well.

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.

I have an episode of watery diarrhea for 5 days Stool analysis showed only mucus, with no parasites and 0-1 WBC's. I have had my last colonoscopy in September 2023, and it was clear from any lesion, inflammatory bowel disease symptoms or any other clinically significant finding. In 2020 I also had another colonoscopy with some specimens to check for microscopic colitis but the specimens were negative. I need to know what is wrong with me and what is the reason for this diarrhea. Blood test showed no Anemia (apart from my Thalassemia minor) , liver enzymes are normal, lactate dehydrogenase normal, CRP and ESR are normal. I need help . .

Male | 44

A positive result from your last two colonoscopies, showing no inflammation or IBD, is reassuring. Mucus in your stool might be due to irritation. Diarrhea can result from various causes, including infection, certain foods, or stress. Since your test results aren't alarming, try drinking lots of fluids, sticking to a soft diet, and letting your gut rest. If the diarrhea persists, consult your doctor for medical advice.

I have issues in my anal as lymph came out of anal n it's hurts when poop tym it's very unbearable pls suggest me what's this so I can get treatment.

Female | 44

It seems that you have an ailment known as an anal crack. This condition is characterized by cracks in the skin around the anus, which can lead to blood and/or injury in the rectum. This may be from being constipated, having diarrhea, or simply surviving hard stools. To relieve the pain and the healing process, you should see a dietician who will give you foods rich in fiber. Also, a glass of water every day and the use of over-the-counter creams to cover the corroded area can be used to help ease the pain and promote the area to heal. For sure, the area troubles you, however, you are urged to seek help if the techniques have failed and no improvement has been noticed.
