Loose poop is whe­n you go to the bathroom a lot and it is watery. It can happen from bugs, bad food, or worry. Drink lots of wate­r so you don't get dry. Eat simple foods like plain rice­, bread, and bananas. If it keeps happe­ning, talk to a gastroenterologist.

I am facing constipation problem from last 2 days I have not done with my stool and my food intake from last 2 days is very low and sometimes I'm getting fever sometimes I am shivering and sometimes my blood pressure became high and sometimes my sugar level goes down I am feeling weakness and whenever I am eating I am facing nausea

Female | 60

I would urge you to make an appointment with a gastroenterologist as early as possible. Constipation, being a symptom involving both food habits and fever, is seen in psychotic disorders, and its monitoring is needed. There is a possibility that the vomiting and weakness you are experiencing are a result of constipation or another medical issue that you have.

Female | 25

If you're dealing with stomach problems consider dietary adjustments like see if you have any trigger foods, eating smaller meals, and staying hydrated. Manage stress through relaxation techniques, limit alcohol and caffeine if at all you consume, and incorporate probiotics into your diet.

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.

My stomach is having gas bubble

Male | 48

Okay you can try a few remedies to find relief. Drink warm liquids like herbal teas or warm water with lemon to relax the stomach muscles. Avoid carbonated drinks and chewing gum as they can contribute to gas production.

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 can't eat because of side effects of previous medicine

Male | 23

Fee­ling queasy after taking medicine­ can be tough. Meds sometime­s cause side effe­cts like no appetite, nause­a, or tummy ache. They can bother your stomach lining. Eat tiny bland me­als and pause betwee­n bites. Ginger tea may he­lp calm things too. If worried about meds, let your doctor know. The­y can guide what's best.

On 11/4/2023 there was sudden onset of burning pain and heaviness in my lower abdomen/pelvic area. Soon after I developed a fever (that lasted about 8 hours) headache and nausea. The following day I began having diarrhea, however I had my gall bladder remover a couple years ago and my BMs are not very consistent. So this is day 4 and I still have pain diarrhea and nausea along with a loss of appetite(which is very unusual for me) I also thought I should shar that I had a total hysterectomy and oophorectomy in 2020 (Laparoscopic)

From your symptom, you may have a GI infection. One can consult a gastroenterologist or any general physician to receive proper diagnosis and treatment. For now, ensure that you stay hydrated and avoid the spicy food. In case the symptoms aggravate, see a doctor quickly.

I have Lymph node in stomach. What it is?

Female | 30

A "lymph node in the­ stomach" often refers to a node­ close to that region, rather than within it. The­se small, bean-like structure­s aid our immunity. Swelling may stem from infections or othe­r issues. If you notice swelling the­re, it's wise to consult a doctor for proper asse­ssment and treatment.

i am a 19 year old female currently about to be 36 weeks pregnant and for the past week ive had horrible diarrhea i did have fevers but they stopped two days ago now only the diarrhea remains and its only gotten worse it seems. ive been to urget care and my obgyn but they haven’t given me the answers im looking for, waiting on some test to come back. my question is my diarrhea has been bright yellow and its been every other hour. since my fever went down ive started getting pain in my stomach everytime i get up and move mainly due to needing to go to the bathroom ( baby is completely fine says the doctors and i do feel her moving the same as before) when i go to use the bathroom its like i cannot get it out only little bits of the diarrhea and now today it is black. so far its like every ten or so minutes my stomach starts hurting and i need to go back but its so swollen and has started to bleed a little bit from so much diarrhea that it really hurts but yet barley any comes out should i try a stool softener?

Female | 19

Bright yellow diarrhea may indicate bile in your stool, while black diarrhea can suggest stomach bleeding. These symptoms could be due to infections or other medical issues that need attention. In my opinion, using a stool softener may not be ideal at this time. It's important to continue following your doctor's advice closely.

Pain in entire ABDOMEN,, dull,,, bloating,,, change in stool.. These symptoms suggest gastrointestinal DISTRESS.. It could be anything from gas to indigestion.. However, if the PAIN is severe or accompanied by vomiting or fever,, it could indicate a more serious condition like appendicitis or pancreatitis.. It's best to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment..

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

Female | 21

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.
