What should I do about my travel diarrhoea?

Patient's Query

Hi I am a 21 year old female who has been travelling in Europe for 1 months. I have been having diarrhoea for the past week on and off and have been taking anti diarrhoea tablets. These block me up and cause stomach cramps. What would you recommend? Thank you

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

From what you've been saying, the diagnosis could be you having traveler's diarrhea, a typical thing when exposed to new places. Anti-diarrhea pills can make things worse by stopping your body from getting rid of the bad stuff that causes stomach cramps. It is best to replenish your fluids by drinking clean water and consuming sports drinks or oral rehydration solutions that contain electrolytes. Stick to the basics, bland foods like rice, bananas, and toast for a while until things settle down. If your symptoms persist, consult your physician for medical advice.

Hii I am an 18 year old male. I had an endoscopy 2 months ago which showed H.Pylori gastritis. My doc has prescribed me esomeprazole, antacids and rebamipide for 15 days. Is there any particular way I have to take these meds? Any possible interaction between the antacid and rebamipide?? My doc has not instructed me properly.

Male | 18

Esoprazole need to take before food.

Antacid need to take after food.

Rebamipide need to take after food.

As you have H pylori gastritis, therefore you need to take HP kit for at least 15 days.

Gestroic and acidity can couse of high blood pressure ??

Male | 39

You won't find high blood pressure caused by stomach and acidity disorders. However, if you're often in a state of worry because of such a situation, it may have a slight impact on your blood pressure. Experiencing symptoms such as stomach ache, puffy belly, and heartburn can make you feel uncomfortable. You should eat less, avoid spicy foods, and learn to relax through techniques such as deep breathing or yoga, which will help you manage stress.

I am a 23 year old female who suffer from a bloated tummy that's making sounds I am constipated and I have piles.

Female | 23

You seem to have symptoms of constipation which tighten up your tummy and produce such strange sounds. Piles or hemorrhoids can also contribute to these symptoms. Constipation means that you have a blocked bowel and experienced infrequent bowel movements. Piles are the swollen blood vessels in your bottom area. To remedy, get more fiber in your diet, drink plenty of water, and stay active as suggested. You can also use medicines meant for the external treatment of piles.

Abdominal pain is not generally caused by uric acid. Leg pain, finger pinching, and fatigue could have various causes unrelated to uric acid levels. If you are suffering from a long time, you should visit a gastroenterologist for proper evaluation and treatment.
