There are many causes of this. It may be gas. It could also be indigestion. Or it could be a stomach bug. Sometimes, it might be menstrual cramps. Or you could be constipated. Drink lots of water. Eat small meals. Do not eat spicy foods. If the pain does not go away, you should see a gastroenterologist.

Feeling stomach problems for the past two weeks
Male | 25
You've been feeling upset for a couple of weeks. One typical reason could be a stomach bug or some food that you consumed that did not agree with your stomach. The symptoms can be stomach pain, bloating, gas, and sometimes diarrhea. To assist, drink lots of water, consume plain foods such as rice and toast, and then get some rest. If it does not improve soon, it is advisable to consult a gastroenterologist.

Hi Sir, kindly help me out to get out of this pain, confusion and frustration. I am Rohan from Pune. 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.And episodes of 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(Leading Gastroentrologist in pune) . That 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) two times in a day along with Amixide h(chlorobenzodioxide +amitryptiline) . Whenever my gut starts paining I took it and pain goes away completely like that problem doesn't exist.I am very confused about this.Stomach pain goes away and comes back. About year ago this problem has started. And just took 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. So I stopped using it completely since year. I want to get completely rid of these medicines and want to live normal life.
Male | 29
Gut issues can be challenging. You've successfully healed ulcers, which is great, but IBS challenges remain. IBS is common and can cause belly pain, bloating, and changes in bowel habits. Often, stress or certain foods trigger it. Medications like Librax and Amixide H, prescribed by your gastroenterologist, can help manage the symptoms. However, lifestyle changes are also important. Stress relief methods, regular exercise, and a fiber-rich, healthy diet can make a significant difference.

I vomit more than 16 times n now I'm having lower back pain since 2 weeks what should I do?
Female | 23
Frequent vomiting and persistent lower back discomfort can indicate underlying issues that require attention. Dehydration or an electrolyte imbalance might result from excessive vomiting, while back pain could stem from muscle strain or other causes. It's essential to maintain hydration by sipping clear fluids and consider light, nutritious foods. However, given the severity and duration of your symptoms, I strongly recommend consulting a gastroenterologist. A thorough evaluation can help identify the root cause and guide you toward appropriate treatment.

My dad is suffering from gastric problem. He took medicines. But he didn't get relief.
Male | 45
Your dad's gastric issue is concerning. The meds don't seem effective. Stomach problems bring pain, bloating, and discomfort. Medications may fail if diet or stress cause the issue. Spicy foods, large meals, and stress worsen symptoms. Smaller portions, stress management, and avoiding trigger foods may improve his condition.

I am 15 years old girl. I took norix1 pill today at 5:05 pm but vomited at 08:03. Do I need to take another pill now?
Female | 15
If the drug has been thrown up within a few hours of its intake, it might not have been fully absorbed into your system. Under such circumstances, it is generally advised to see a doctor to find out if you need to take another dose. One should be very careful as it is risky to take an extra dose of the drug without the proper instructions. You should also note down any other symptoms that might be associated and, when you visit the physician, get the time-appropriate advice.

I had fever since last 3 days but I was taking medicine and 2 antibiotics so it was fine but last night I vomitted after taking the third dose of antibiotic because I didn't took the medicine for gas. And the next day I had fever of 100.3 F What is the problem here? Is it serious or is it because not completing the dose?
Female | 20
It’s understandable to be concerned about your recent symptoms. The fever, combined with vomiting, could indicate several factors, such as the effects of the medication or a response to your illness. It’s important to complete your antibiotic course as prescribed, as stopping early can lead to incomplete treatment. Since you're experiencing ongoing fever, I recommend contacting a gastroenterologist. They can assess your situation and may suggest adjustments to your treatment plan. In the meantime, staying hydrated and resting can aid your recovery.

पुरुष | 48
Typhoid and malaria can present similar symptoms, such as fever and chills, but they are caused by different pathogens. A CBC and Widal test can help indicate typhoid, while a blood smear is essential for malaria diagnosis. Since you've had recurrent fever after starting antibiotics, it's crucial to consult your doctor for further evaluation. They may suggest additional tests or a different treatment plan. Please don't hesitate to seek immediate medical attention for persistent symptoms. Proper guidance from a gastroenterologist is important for recovery.

This could be acid reflux, also called heartburn. Acid from your stomach travels back up your esophagus, causing those issues. Try avoiding spicy, fatty foods. Eat smaller portions and don't lie down right after. Elevate your head when sleeping, too. Drink plenty of water; follow a balanced diet. If symptoms persist, talk to a gastroenterologist for help. Your health matters!

Female | 25
Gastric discomfort can arise from various factors, such as diet, stress, or underlying health issues. Common signs include heartburn, bloating, and nausea. To alleviate symptoms, consider keeping a food diary to identify triggers, eat smaller meals, and avoid spicy or fatty foods. Staying hydrated and managing stress through relaxation techniques can also be beneficial.

Weight gain does not simply rely on medications. A balanced diet that contains a good amount of proteins and carbohydrates, plus regular physical activity can aid you to gain weight healthily. A nutritionist or dietician will help develop a suitable nutrition plan for your health status and your body type. If you have any difficulty related to weight gain, then going to an endocrinologist or gastroenterologist will help you find the hidden cause of the problem and receive proper treatment.

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.

Swollen blood vessels, called haemorrhoids, might cause this. Constipation or diarrhea could also cause it. Drinking water, eating fiber-rich foods, and using medicated ointments may help. However, it is better to consult a gynecologist, as they would help identify the underlying issue and give you proper treatment plan

You are going through the swelling problem of your hands and feet after taking medication for blood level maintenance. This might be a consequence of some drugs. The limb swelling and the discomfort you are feeling might indicate a fluid retention issue. Your doctor should adjust your treatment plan to ensure that your blood levels are good and you do not have these side effects. Talk to your gastroenterologist about all your symptoms so that they can make the most appropriate choices for your health.

My name is Sachin i have been experiencing bloating, cramps, stomach pain, and feeling like your stomach is hard, especially after eating cauliflower and grams. My symptoms started gradually and have been consistent since morning. The severity of my symptoms is around 6 to 7 on a scale of 1 to 10. I have not experienced diarrhea or constipation along with these symptoms.
Male | 32
Bloating, cramps, and stomach pain after eating cauliflower and beans might occur if your digestive system is unable to function properly. They can lead to gas production, which in turn, can make your belly quite firm and you may feel uncomfortable. Try to stay away from these foods for the moment and drink a certain amount of water to see if your symptoms are relieved. If the situation persists, you can consider consulting a gastroenterologist for some additional guidance.

I am a 18 year old female who is experiencing chest tightness since last night. I drank omeprazole earlier but its still here. When I lay on my side the chest tightness will get worse but when I lay in my back the chest tightness will get better. Is it acid reflux?
Female | 18
It sounds like you might be experiencing acid reflux. This happens when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing chest discomfort. Lying on your side can make this worse because it allows the acid to move up more easily. To help with this, try avoiding spicy or acidic foods, eat smaller meals, and stay upright after eating. You can also elevate the head of your bed while sleeping to keep the acid down. If these tips don't improve your symptoms, it's best to see a gastroenterologist for further evaluation.

Female | 24
If the patient has the symptoms you have mentioned, along with the results of Helicobacter pylori 019 and high calprotectin, the patient needs to see a gastroenterologist for more diagnosis and treatment. These signs could be suggestive of diseases, like gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, or inflammatory disease bowels.

I've got abdominal pain and my urine is burning
Female | 38
Terrible tummy troubles and a fiery feeling when peeing could mean a urinary tract infection (UTI). These infections occur when germs sneak into the pipes that carry pee, making things inflamed and achy. You might also feel the need to go more often, and your pee looks cloudy. Drinking tons of water can help rinse those germs away. But visiting a gastroenterologist for medicine like antibiotics is crucial to fix things.
