If you're feeling heaviness on the left side of your tummy, it could be due to gas, constipation, or even stress. Eating too fast can also cause this discomfort. Try eating slowly, drinking water, and moving around. If the discomfort persists or worsens, it's best to consult a gastroenterologist for further advice.

im 20 years old male , I've had bloating and constipation along with nausea for the past two weeks , my stomach is emptying very slowly, I also have pain in my abdomen and chest area. i cannot drink too much water or eat a heavy meal or i will end up vomiting
Male | 20
The symptoms you are describing might be the ones associated with gastritis. It is the state that the lining of your stomach is intimate. If you eat too much spicy or greasy food, or if you are stressed, this can be the case. To help yourself feel better, you should eat smaller, bland meals, and drink water throughout the day. Consuming caffeine and alcohol is good to avoid.

I m suffering from gallbladder stone whenever I try the exercise I feel some pain near stomach
Female | 26
If you feel pain near your belly while working out, it could be due to gallstones. These are small round objects that can grow in your gallbladder. They may cause discomfort. You may have to change your eating habits to deal with this, such as avoiding fatty foods and taking plenty of water. Sometimes people may require an operation to remove them. Discuss with a gastroenterologist who can give advice based on your situation personally

Loose motion problem and accidety
Male | 32
Loose motion (diarrhea) can be caused by virus infections, food poisoning, or bad hygiene. Symptoms consist of frequent and loose stools. Acidity occurs when the stomach's acid goes up the food pipe which brings along heartburn. To manage, drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration and eat rice, bananas, and toast, which are bland foods. Avoid spicy and oily foods that can trigger acidity before having a meal. If symptoms persist, seek medical advice from a gastroenterologist.

There's a possibility that could be due to urinary tract infection, kidney stones, gastrointestinal issues, or reproductive system disorders. Consult a gynecologist for evaluation.

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 am 33 year old male 6 feet tall guy experiencing watery loose motion from past 3 days no stomach pain no fever only loose motion
Male | 33
This can happen from a stomach bug or something you ate that your body didn't agree with. It's good that your stomach doesn't hurt and you don't have a fever. Be sure to drink lots of liquid so you don't get dried out. Eat plain things like rice, bananas, and toast. If it keeps up for more than a few days or gets worse, then go see a gastroenterologist.

I was very young around 2 years old when I was diagnosed with inguinal hernia then when I was 6 and half I had a surgery and after sometime hernia reoccurred since then I am living with inguinal hernia size of testicles is enlarged and my penis is short like that of kid
Male | 18
A condition like inguinal hernia happens when intestine bulges through a weak spot near your tummy. It causes pain, swelling, or a lump by your groin. Surgery fixes it sometimes. But if hernia returns after surgery, discuss treatment options with your doctor. Enlarged testicle and shorter penis might relate to hernia. So, mention these concerns to your healthcare provider for further solutions.

Sir I have been suffering from blaoting and constipation . I have probelm in intestine also as I always feel full I think constipated. When I bloats white sticky substance comes out . The reason was that I was not much aware of drinking water and was not drinking water from 7 to 8 months. I have been suffering from this problem from 1 to 2 years pls help me doctor
Male | 16
Not drinking enough water can lead to such problems. Make sure to drink lots of water and eat foods high in fiber such as fruits and vegetables. Also, try being more active – this can help your bowels move properly. Increasing your fluid intake, consuming more dietary roughage, and keeping on the go. Remember it’s always best to seek medical advice if things don’t improve.

I was wondering what to do about my medical situation: I’ve been experiencing few weeks: -Anal discomfort from constipation -bowel leakage - anal itchiness for a due to Background: I had a loop colostomy put in the descending colon but what it seems To me is that some stool bypassed the colostomy and got to the area in the rectum that is damaged, and so its just staying inside the rectum, I can’t seem to have a bowel movement because of the damage in that area and I can’t seem to get it out. because of having the colostomy, I know there isn’t a serious problem like a blockage. but I’m feeling really uncomfortable due to the the leakages and itchiness at the anal area. From past experience Enemas and laxatives and suppositories haven’t been helpful with my constipation. What can I do?
Female | 27
It seems that you have encountered some abnormal complications related to your colostomy or you are constipated. Your anal discomfort and the smell and itchiness are occurring due to the feces that have collected in the damaged area in your rectum. That can occur when the stool makes an unplanned detour. In view of the fact that classical treatments such as enemas and laxatives are of no help; it is time to speak to your care provider for other possible options, like diet modification, stool softeners, or special procedures.

Problem in swallowing, food get stuck in chest sensation, food comes back, chest pain and we did endoscopy Here the report Esophagus : Ulcerative growth at 34 cm from incisor continuing distally with luminal narrowing, scope could not be negotiated beyond 37 cm from incisor
Male | 80
Swallowing troubles, stuck food feeling, and chest pain seem tricky. Your endoscopy report reveals an ulcer growth in the esophagus (food travel tube). This growth narrows the opening, obstructing food movement. To ease this, your gastroenterologist might suggest treatments like medication or surgery to reduce inflammation and heal that ulcer.

Hello my name is Mohammad my mom died from colon cancer and my aunt father side died from lung cancer and recently I am having black ( I mean like really black) poop I haven’t had any iron supplements and I’m not having abdominal pain but I lost a lot of weight in 2-3 months I hardly ever go to ???? and when I go I have very stiff black poop I don’t have eagerness for food and I was very very harmed mentally for my moms lost that I almost had days taking 1.5 kg of ambient (15*10tablets*10gr) I am also studying dentistry so if you speak in medical terms I would probably understand.
Male | 23
Do not underestimate how black stool points to possible internal bleeding of your digestive system, nor your symptoms of losing weight and having no appetite. This points to the start of a severe health issue that would be more likely benign than malignant. Besides, it's best to go through the colon and intestine diagnostics first as well as some other medical tests.

Male | 23
Testicle pain related to digestion could be caused by referred pain. In this case, discomfort from the abdomen gets felt in the testicles. Inflammation or nerve irritation in the stomach area can lead to this. To help, focus on improving digestion through nutritious eating. Stay hydrated, and limit spicy or greasy items. Regular physical activity promotes better digestion too. However, if the pain persists or worsens, see a gastroenterologist for a proper examination and treatment plan.
