Your body is trying to get rid of something bothering it, like a virus, bacteria, or food that didn't agree with you. To help, drink lots of liquids so you don't get dehydrated. Stick to bland stuff like toast or rice. If it doesn't improve after a couple of days, check with a gastroenterologist.

Female | 32
It appears that you have Grade 2 Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, along with an enlarged liver and spleen due to fat deposits. This condition can result from obesity, high cholesterol, or diabetes, and symptoms may include fatigue, abdominal pain, and weight loss. To improve your health, focus on a healthy, balanced diet, regular exercise, and closely monitor your cholesterol and blood sugar levels.

Am anand having breathing problem (aspiration )due to GERD for last week. Kindly prescribe tablets for this and food habit for gerd recovery. No pain in chest and abdomen, only breathing issue. Ecg normal.
Male | 37
GERD is a disorder that occurs when stomach acid comes back into the food pipe. The food pipe is what brings the food to the stomach. This can result in breathing problems as well. In this case, you can take antacids such as Tums or Rolaids to help with the acid. Avoid spicy, fatty, and acidic foods. Try to eat smaller meals and do not lie down right after eating. This can make you feel better.

I FEAR DOCTORS!!! I was put in a coma in 2016 & was near death the 3rd day. I didn't come out of the coma till the 7th day. I found out last year, that my diagnoses was kept from me. I was told in 2016, it was only bc of trigeminal neuralgia, septic shock and ARDS. HOWEVER, I learned last year that I was also diagnosed with pulmonary edema, emphysema, a mild heart attack, a cyst on my right kidney, a damaged liver, they removed my gallbladder .... along with the Septic Shock, trigeminal neuralgia and ARDS!! I also saw that I was overdosed on the 3rd day in the coma on 1 of my epilepsy meds. I've been an epileptic since about a year old from a spider bite. So, throughout my life I've taken multiple meds. In 2016, I was taking 400mg of Lamictal, 300 mg of tegretol (which i was overdosed on in the coma) & I was also on 500mg of Dilantin then. I went to the hospital for weeks bc, my chest had been killing me, I had trouble breathing bc it hurt to take a breath, I got wicked headaches often, dizzy spells & body weakness. I was put in the coma the next day. Again I was only told about the Septic Shock, trigeminal neuralgia and ARDS. Shortly after the coma, my neurologist put me on 600 mg of Lamictal, 400mg of toprimate, 2000mg of levetiracetam & 1800 mg of felbamate. In 2019, my old neuro told me i had "mental issues". Throughout the years since, I've had sepsis 1 time & Septic shock twice. After I moved & found a new neurologist I learned that toprimate & Lamictal weren't for my type of epilepsy. Although i have seizures often, they were not helping my epilepsy or any of my health. I saw a neuro physiologist after my VNS battery was changed & he diagnosed me w late stage 1 alziemers due to the seizures, meds & 2 brain surgeries on my temperol lobe and agreed that Lamictal & toprimate weren't helping. My neurologist took me off toprimate but wanted to have my kidneys, liver & heart checked before he took me off Lamictal bc both levetiracetam and Felbamate can mess w those & taking me off Lamictal he plans on upping one of those. So he put me on Lamictal xr to help stop my dizzy spells & had me see a cardio, a pulmonary, a liver doc and a kidney doc. They saw the scaring on my heart & an irregular heart beat, the cyst on my right kidney, emphysema & my liver scared, w fatty tissue and enlarged to 21cm. When they asked me about pains and or unusual issues i had, I only told my neuro physiologist first, bc I remembered what my old docs put me through. Ive not been completely diagnosed bc my liver will swell up for weeks (& I know when it does bc pains r indescribable), but then the swelling will go down. I've chest pains when my liver swells, I also have periods when it hurts all around my stomach & back to stand up straight or sit straight up. My periods been irregular for years. I'll be incapable of eating sometimes bc of pain all around my stomach. The right side of my back is excruciating sometimes. I'm incapable of holding urine & sometimes I don't feel I have to go or realize I'm going. My urine is red every few weeks but will go back to almost orange or sometimes ... it'll look like water. My new doctors have seen it all in urine tests. My feet swell up sometimes to where my legs will hurt when I where socks bc theyre too tight. I don't get headaches as often now, but when I get them, the pain can't be explained. I've diarrhea constantly & I have for years. My shoulders were in unreal pain this past year a few times, for a few days. I'm not asking for a recommendation bc again, I fear doctors due to them overdosing me in a coma & keeping medical info & records from me. I just want an idea of what this is!! Yes I smoke. I have since I was 14 (26years). No I DO NOT AND WILL NOT DO DRUGS!!! Biggest reason being my epilepsy, but I've also lost a friend who gave his life to drugs when he got out of the military. I do smoke pot right before bed (I do it to put me in another world to help me sleep bc I have flashbacks of abuse from my x and honestly, i will say that sometimes it'll help the pain im in). I HAVEN'T TOUCHED ALCOHOL IN 3 YEARS! From the end of 2018 to 2020, I was an alcoholic due to doctors refusing to help me, abuse from my x and the pains I was experiencing. However, when I left my x, I stayed w christian friends & w/in 1 month, I gave my life to Christ ???? When pains act up or symptoms, I simply pray ?. BC God IS ? Im living proof to that!! He's the only reason I made it out of my coma. It's on the records that, they didn't comprehend my coming too. However, it's also on the records of an eeg when I was in it that I was having a dream while in the coma. (& Its A dream that I will never forget!!?) There's times when I'm indescribably nautious! The pains and issues I've explained come and go non stop. What is this and why is it ignored by my new docs who tested everything and diagnosed what was found?

According to your symptoms, it is critical for you to see gastroenterologist in order that the doctor will make proper evaluation and diagnosis. The symptoms show that you may be suffering from gastrointestinal concerns like liver disease and kidney complications. Prompt addressing these issues will prevent further complexities. We suggest to visit a specialist who will give you the necessary treatment and care.

I have been suffering from digestive issues and stomach disorders for about a month. I feel like it takes long for my stomach to digest food. I feel hungry but I can't eat because of this issue. If I do, I'll get acid reflux and other symptoms.
Male | 20
Gastritis makes the stomach lining inflamed. Slow digestion, lack of appetite, and acid reflux occur. Stress, spicy foods, and medications cause it. Eat small meals frequently. Avoid caffeine and alcohol. Stay hydrated. Manage stress through breathing or meditation. See a gastroenterologist if symptoms don't improve.

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.

Ulcerative colitis flare up or stomach bug?
Female | 18
Sometimes flare-ups of ulcerative colitis and stomach bugs show the same symptoms, such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, and cramps. However, a stomach bug is usually a short-lived infection that may disappear on its own while ulcerative colitis is a chronic condition that needs medical intervention. Visit a gastroenterologist who can effectively make a diagnosis and prescribe treatment.

I take Aciclovir dispersible tablet approx 1 week & due to this there have arise a problem that .... there is pain in my stomach & also cause weakness arise
Female | 21
Aciclovir dispersible tablets could cause stomach aches. You might feel weak too. That's because the tablets irritate your stomach lining sometimes. Take them with food to avoid irritation. Drink lots of water. Eat small, mild meals. This helps with the weakness. If stomach pain or weakness continues, talk to a gastroenterologist.

Iam 25 year old male .I had fever & fatigue in regular intervals .sleepy mode full time.i was facing an acid reflux. A pain on upper right side of chest
Male | 25
The fever, fatigue, acid reflux, and pain in the upper right side of your chest suggest you haven't been feeling well. Have you considered the possibility of having acid reflux disease? This occurs when stomach acid moves into the food pipe, causing discomfort. Avoid spicy foods, eat smaller meals, and avoid lying down right after eating. Also, drink plenty of water daily. If your symptoms persist despite these changes, I recommend seeing a gastroenterologist for further advice.

Male | 21
This can happen when you aren’t drinking enough water, or maybe even because of certain foods you eat. Throughout the day, try to drink more water and avoid new food items that you don’t typically consume. If it doesn’t seem to improve after a few days, then visit a gastroenterologist.

I've been diagnosed with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and find it hard to manage my symptoms. What dietary modifications can help alleviate my discomfort?
Female | 37
IBS patients often experience a sour stomach, leading to symptoms like bloating, cramps, and changes in bowel habits. Certain foods can worsen these symptoms, such as dairy, spicy foods, caffeine, and artificial sweeteners. Eating small meals, drinking enough water, and avoiding trigger foods can help. Fiber-rich foods and probiotics may also be beneficial. Since everyone is different, keep a food diary to track what works best for you.

Male | 21
Jaundice makes your skin and eyes go yellow. Too much bilirubin in the blood causes it. Liver problems such as infections or blockages can be responsible for this. To get better from jaundice you need to take a lot of rest, eat healthy food, and stay away from alcohol. Drink plenty of water and follow the treatment recommended by your doctor.

Pancreas problem and fatty liver
Male | 22
Pancreas problems and fatty liver are two separate medical conditions that can occur independently or sometimes in association with each other. In some cases, more advanced treatment may be necessary. For example, advanced fatty liver disease may lead to cirrhosis, which may require a liver transplant. For pancreas problems, surgery may be necessary in some cases.
Consult with a gastroenterologist or a hepatologist to find out what is the problem exactly.

Female | 20
You seem to have stomach discomfort and skipped menstruation. Intensified pain upon eating signals potential issues like gastritis or ulcers. Two missed cycles could arise from various factors like hormonal imbalances or stress. Consulting a gastroenterologist proves crucial for accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment.

huge pain in lower abdomen..
Female | 16
Feeling a burning or cramping sensation in your lower abdomen is unpleasant and can be symptomatic of a variety of conditions. It is possible that the cause of such pain could be indigestion, gas, constipation, a menorrhea. Try drinking more water, eating food high in fiber, and taking an over-the-counter pain reliever, If it continues or becomes worse, though, don't slough it off on your own. You should take an appointment with a gastroenterologist to ensure that treatment is not delayed.
