Motion sickness can be defined as nausea and dizziness when one travels. The phenomenon can be caused by the confusion in the brain between the signals sent. Motion sickness meds are usually taken. However, Dulcolax is a laxative intended to be used for constipation treatment, not motion sickness. It may result in cramping and diarrhea. It is crucial to refrain from any other drugs and consult a gastroenterologist.

I have been prescribed zerodol for back pain for 5 days. But I also have gastric after 5 days I am having acid reflux. What should I do
Female | 26
Zerodol may have relieved the pain, but it left you with an unpleasant twist in your stomach—acid reflux, also known as heartburn. This condition occurs when stomach acid flows back into your esophagus, causing a burning sensation in your chest or throat. To manage it, try eating smaller meals, avoid spicy foods, and stay upright for a while after eating.

I m suffering from Lax LES III. What is the best treatment?
Male | 40

You may experience chest pain, trouble swallowing, or feel something stuck in the throat. Being overweight, smoking and certain foods can trigger it. Making some lifestyle adjustments like eating smaller meals helps treat it. Taking medications or surgery may also provide relief. Visit a gastroenterologist for further treatment.

Had the flu week ago….all the symptoms…. Stool clay color, now having pain under right rib cage…2 days ago started having loose stools every time eating something…Stool getting back to normal color now… No abdominal pain and no back pain….Is this something be concerned with… Do not take med only Tylenol….
Female | 65
Your flu last week messed with your digestion. The clay-colored poop is likely due to a liver or gallbladder hiccup. That rib pain on your right side? It connects. The loose stool after eating shows your body's still healing. But since your poop's regaining color and pain's mild, just rest up. Drink lots of water. Eat simply digestible foods. If that rib ache persists or intensifies, see a doctor. For now, your body's recovering from illness.

Running to the bathroom repeatedly or feeling stomach pains? It may indicate a stomach bug, causing frequent bowel movements and increased urination.

i got mild choking some rice in my throath that make me cough but i can breath can i ask can i drink water?
Female | 61
Sometimes when the food goes down the wrong way it gets stuck in the throat. If you can breathe and cough this means that the airflow is not obstructed. You can try this method: drink a bit of water to help flush the rice down. Do not swallow big gulps as this may lead to more choking interventions. Small sips are recommended and you should keep coughing to remove the dirt from your throat. Get medical care if the problem continues or confirms you have a more serious illness.

I have constipation from last 1 month.And no pressure during morning and evening toilet. I applied lots of pressure but nothing happened. Also only gas pass during toilet.
Male | 21
It can mean that your intestines are not moving fast enough when you have trouble passing feces and only pass gas at times. Lack of fiber in the diet, not drinking enough fluids, or physical inactivity can cause this. Eat more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains; drink plenty of water and be active to get things ‘going’ again. If it persists, see a gastroenterologist for further assessment and advice.

The infection fixed but my intestines are now destroyed. The rectum encounters occasional pain (stabbing like) after using the toilet and the stool is covered in mucus. The stool color is dark red/ brown. No diarrhea. Heart pain that radiates to the left arm, probably under reactive inflammatory context. No tachycardia. Do I have to start 250mg vancomycin hydrochloride PO each 6 hours for 7 days? All the doctors in my city are saying that this antibiotic is only for diarrhea people. What should I do? I'm also nauseous. Took fluconazole 3 weeks then itraconazole 3 weeks in winter, no help, just probably made the situation worse. Today WBC 11.9. Anti-streptolysin, sedimentation rate & reactive C protein are normal. Abdominal tomography displayed inflamed lymph nodes around aorta (reactive inflammatory context). What would you do if you were me? Not currently taking any medication/ having any known condition.
Male | 29
Your symptoms seem worrying. The dark red or brown stool mixed with mucus and rectal pain points to issues in your intestines. Additionally, heart pain and a high white blood cell count raise concerns. Vancomycin usually treats bacterial infections, not these symptoms. It's crucial to consult a gastroenterologist. They can evaluate you properly based on your test results and medical history.

Male | 31
It seems you have a food problem. You may feel full fast after you eat. Your tummy may expand. You may feel bad in your gut. Eat small meals slowly. Do not eat spicy foods. Do not drink too much coffee or booze. Do not lie down right after you eat. If you still don't feel better, go see a gastroenterologist.
