Expert Strategies to Manage IBS and Gut Pain
Hi Sir, kindly help me out to get out confusion and frustration. This is my Clinical summary -Rohan, a 29-year-old male, presented with chief complaints of reflux symptoms and severe abdominal pain persisting for the past 3 months.Sometimes diarrhea.Upon examination, his vital signs were stable. Diagnostic procedures, including gastroscopy and colonoscopy, were performed, leading to the diagnosis of a duodenal ulcer, pan gastritis and pathological findings of lymphocytic colitis. The treatment approach involved the administration of medications, as mentioned in the prescription, to manage the condition. Regular follow-up visits were recommended to monitor the progress and adjust the treatment regimen accordingly. After two and a half months of treatment, significant improvement was noted, with no abdominal pain reported, and the patient's overall well-being has improved. Consequently, the dosage of medications has been reduced. Continued monitoring and adherence to the prescribed treatment plan are necessary to ensure complete resolution of symptoms and prevent recurrence. This was my condition eight months ago. Right now I am very frustrated because of gut problem. It's paining even after following treatment and strict diet for eight months. I almost lost 8 kg. I went for second opinion My doctor told me that your ulcers are healed completely.And lymphocytic colitis was misdiagnosed. Now It's a IBS that causing the pain and not colitis.He prescribed me Librax(Clinidium+chlorobenzodioxide) along with Amixide h(chlorodizapoxide +amitryptiline) . Whenever my gut starts paining I took it and pain fade away.I am very confused about this.Stomach pain goes away and comes back. About year ago this problem has started. And just take those above medicines to cope up with pain One more thing to add here is that I was diagnosed with GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) few years back. I was taking escitalopram( Lexapro 10 mg)on and off prescribed by psychiatrist.But My Gastroenterologist told me to stop using lexapro as it can cause ulcer. Can you guys help me to correctly understand the disease and ways to overcome it.

It seems that this disease has reached you without any diagnostic problem, and it turns out to be IBS.
The doctor associated with the management of your symptoms and provision of relief is putting you on medication which includes Librax (Clinidiumchlorobenzodioxide) and Amixide H (chlorobenzodioxide amitriptyline). This particular type of drug worked effectively in relieving you from the pain just like it had no existence at all.
It is necessary to emphasize that IBS can be long-term and would probably demand long-term therapy. You are advised by your doctor to follow the instructions as they have been given and take all the medications that have been prescribed to you as directed. Close visits with the gastroenterologist are vital to achieving progress and controlling the treatment by your doctor.
If you had GAD in your earlier years, you need to make some lifestyle modifications since it can affect your gut health. On the one hand, Lexapro withdrawal caused intestinal ulcers because your gastroenterologist instructed me to stop using it, but on the other hand, it was necessary to prevent ulcers.

Hi mam, Since 4 month little little more pain near to chest I thought It was gastrict so I used omez,it was fine that time,from last night pain reaptitung the same,what todo now.?
Female | Keerthi
This may be a consequence of gastritis, a stomach problem, but the other options still need to be examined. The pain coming back could mean that there is something else going on. Your heart and lungs also need to be considered. It is imperative to see a gastroenterologist for them to ask more inquiries, do an examination, and even run some tests to determine the source of the pain

I am a daily alcohol drinker. I had the lunch in hotel 5 days before and since that time i am feeling stomach pain. It pains when i touch to stomach. it pains while sleeping also. I had taken local dr. consultation but no effect.
Male | 36
You might be suffering from gastritis, which refers to the inflammation of your stomach lining. Symptoms such as stomach pain when touched and chest pain when lying down are also possible. It is a peculiar allergy that may erupt when consuming alcohol or eating a hearty meal. To fight with it, stick with bland foods, avoid alcohol, and take antacids. In case the pain does not go away, you will have to consult a gastroenterologist once again.

Male | 17
It seems like you might be experiencing symptoms related to depression, anxiety, poor sleep, B12 deficiency, headaches, and stomach problems. I would recommend consulting with a psychiatrist to address your mental health concerns and a gastroenterologist to investigate and manage your stomach issues. They can provide proper assessment and treatment tailored to your needs.

My ALT test result was 347iu but apart from feeling extremely tired, not being able to sleep and constipation. My doctor didn’t seem worried and says he’ll repeat test in a month.
Female | 64
An ALT test checks your liver's enzyme level. A reading of 347iu could mean liver troubles. Extreme fatigue, insomnia, and constipation might signal liver issues. Your doctor wants another test next month to see if levels change. Meanwhile, eat healthy foods, avoid alcohol, and rest well. Follow up with your doctor about your liver health status.

I have been pooping for about 2 weeks, yellow and sludge like stool. As soon as I eat, I feel the urge to poop. This started after I ate canned food from the store which was spicy. I previously know my stomach does not allow for spicy food without negative reaction, but this feels extreme. I had iron deficiency before, I took tablets and it normalised. My scalp hair growth has slowed, losing weight. I have not added a lot of vegetables to my diet.
Male | 27
You possibly have gastritis, an inflamed stomach lining. Eating spicy or canned foods worsens it. Yellow, sludge-like stools signal this condition. Frequent urges to poop after meals are common symptoms. Iron deficiency may be linked to it as well. Try cutting spicy foods, eating more veggies, and drinking lots of water. Consult a gastroenterologist if issues persist.

I feel vomit and stomachache when eating Bp low an shiver at night Weakness Loss appetite
Male | 21
You might have a stomach bug. Feeling nauseous, abdominal pain, low blood pressure, night chills, fatigue, or lack of appetite indicate this. A virus likely causes it. Rest, stay hydrated, eat plain foods like toast or crackers to settle your stomach. If no improvement in a few days, seek medical help.

I have constant gas every night in my belly for the last 3 years and recently my gas has been stuck beside my belly button.
Female | 36
Your belly feels gassy, right around the navel. That bloated sensation stings. Gas frequently results from meals being improperly digested. Rapid eating, chewing gum, carbonated beverages - these worsen it. Slow down while eating, avoid gas-causing foods, and hydrate well. If issues persist, consulting a gastroenterologist provides expert guidance.

Hello, here rupa and my problem is im suffering from GERD problem how to rid from this problem ,and how many time does it take to control my acidity. What is the medicine?
Female | 30
You have GERD, where stomach acid goes back into the food pipe and causes discomfort. Symptoms of GERD include heartburn, chest pain, and a sore throat. To reduce the intensity you may use smaller quantities of food. Antacids or proton pump inhibitors also affect stomach acids, so when needed, these medications are advised to be taken. Determining the right course of action may be lengthy and difficult for you. But with your commitment and those new lifestyle changes, you may feel many improvements.

Good Afternoon, I was referred by a friend to contact you. I'm set to go to the doctor tomorrow but first want to consult a doctor online before going to my doctor. I have a quite weird symptom - Since the beginning of the year I have been having some stomach problems. I can't eat rich food, like too spicy food, Tomato Sauce and Chillies ect. The other thing Is I have been having now and then stomach cramps also like a heartburn feeling but in my stomach and then the most embarrassing symptom is my stomach growling even when I did eat it still growling. Can you please tell me what might be wrong and what medication I should take. Thank You.
Male | 19
One possibility is that you are suffering from gastrointestinal problems if you feel bothered by things like stomach pain, a heartburn-like sensation, and continuous stomach growling. This can be acute or chronic inflammation of your stomach lining, which usually the symptoms point to. Besides, it is suggested to consume food in small amounts and at short intervals, stay away from those that are spicy or acidic, and for temporary relief use over-the-counter drugs similar to Tums. Talk with a gastroenterologist for their expert advice and treatments.

Unchanged background of scattered tree-in-bud nodularity seen most prominently in the bilateral lower lobes. Findings are likely due to sequela of low volume aspiration given mildly patulous appearance of the esophagus, concerning for esophageal dysmotility/chronic reflux. Clinical correlation and further evaluation with fluoroscopic guided esophagram may be considered. If patient's symptoms persist or worsen, consider repeat CT chest in 3 to 6 months to further evaluate. No new suspicious pulmonary nodularity or pathologic intrathoracic lymphadenopathy appreciated.
Male | 43
By analyzing the scan results, the doctors found that there are small clusters in the lungs which can be a sign of possible aspiration. This could be because of the problems with the functioning of the esophagus, which may be related to chronic reflux. To be sure, a test called an esophagram could provide more insights. If symptoms continue, another scan in a few months could help track any changes.

Sharp left sided abdominal pain. Directly under lower ribs. Intermittently x6mos or more. The pain is more noticeable when standing and the pain is better with pressure but immediately returns when pressure is removed
Female | 30
Experiencing pain on your left side below the ribs for over six months. Pain increases when standing, yet eases temporarily with applied pressure. Intermittent discomfort could result from spleen or colon issues. Visit a gastroenterologist for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Hi there, I'm currently only 19 years old and have previously had occasional heartburn. However, the past 2 weeks I have noticed i have been getting it more frequently. For example last night my heartburn kept waking me up throughout the night. but right now I'm experiencing heartburn and tingling/pins and needles in my hands
Female | 19
You might have acid reflux causing heartburn and tingling hands. Acid reflux happens when stomach acid goes up your food pipe. That causes a burning feeling, called heartburn. Tingling hands could mean irritated nerves. To help, eat smaller meals, avoid spicy foods, don't lie down after eating. See a gastroenterologist if it doesn't get better.

The chronic problem of ulcers in the stomach might be the cause of painful problems as well as discomfort.

To ensure a precise diagnosis and also be able to select the right treatment, it is essential to seek a gastroenterologist.

It sounds like you're dealing with a lot of pain and discomfort . . Have you talked to your doctor about alternative treatments? It's good that your blood work looks NORMAL, but it's still important to keep monitoring your symptoms. Have you tried any lifestyle changes, such as changing your DIET or reducing STRESS? It's important to keep seeking medical advice and exploring all options available to you. . . . .

I have anal fissures, using anasol it doesn't bleed anymore but can u prescribe any oral medication
Female | 35
It is a positive step that the bleeding has stopped with Anasol, but let us find an oral medication for your anal fissures. These are the reasons which cause it when the skin around your bottom tears. It can lead to pain and bleeding when you poo. To help them heal, you can take stool softeners like psyllium husk or docusate sodium. These can cause going to the bathroom to be quicker and less painful. Besides, you should drink a lot of water too.

I have been having running stomach for the past 3 days and it still occuring, and I have been taking some drugs but it didn't work out , what should I do ?
Female | 24
So, if you have this situation and drugs are not helping, you might turn to think that is this caused by your diet. Some condiments, fatty, and dairy products trigger stomach pain if it is oversensitive. Stick to the plainest foods, perhaps like bread, rice, or bananas. Also, make sure to drink enough water so that your body cannot dry out and the stomach can gain pretty much. In case things are not getting improved soon, then it's time to fix an appointment with a Gastroenterologist.

Im wondering if Ulcerative Colitis can affect a man's sexual ability causing ED. Either that or is it possible for UC to cause low testosterone? Is this possible without me taking any medications?
Male | 28
A situation that inflames the colon, ulcerative colitis, can result in symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and fatigue. Even though inflammation and stress brought on by UC do not cause directly erectile dysfunction (ED) or low testosterone; they can have an impact on sexual health. The best way forward is to treat UC effectively while also finding ways of reducing stress.

What could be causing my abdominal pain and burning sensation, with a mild enlargement in size of my liver and spleen? I'm concerned about the possibility of a serious condition like colon cancer. Can you provide any guidance or information?
Male | 19
Mild enlargement of the liver and spleen, without any focal lesions, can have various causes and may not necessarily indicate a serious disease like colon cancer. Conditions like fatty liver disease, viral infections, inflammation, etc. can be associated with the swelling of these organs.
A proper diagnosis can only be made by a healthcare professional like a gastroenterologist after considering your complete medical history.

Male | 17
You may have got a hemorrhoid. Hemorrhoids are inflamed veins in your anus, which can lead to discomfort, itching, and sometimes bleeding. This condition may be a result of stressing during bowel movements, sitting for a long time, or not taking fiber in your diet. To get rid of your symptoms, you can apply OTC creams, take warm baths, and eat more fiber-rich foods. Hemorrhoids are most often disappear by themselves but if it is uncomfortable, it would be better to discuss with a gastroenterologist.
