Constipation is a condition when you find it difficult to regularly to poop. It may be that your health conditions are the reason for it. Fiber-rich foods, such as fruits and vegetables, as well as plenty of water, are important. Additionally, try to incorporate some more physical activity into your daily routine, even a short walk can make a difference. Speak with your gastroenterologist to find other safe ways to control your constipation without using too much sodium picosulfate.

Two months before I was suffering from rectum pain and some time pain genital after urination but now I have noticed rectum pain after 2-3 of masterbution which remains 2-3 days

Male | 24

If you’re feeling soreness in your anus and genital region following sexual release or peeing, it could mean that you have an urinary or reproductive system problem such as infection or inflammation. For the best results, see your doctor for a checkup. Meanwhile, take lots of water, avoid spices and try sitting in warm bath to relieve the pain.

I currently been having chest burns

Female | 18

These are the symptoms of acid reflux or GERD chest burns. Consider seeing a gastroenterologist for an assessment. Symptoms can be relieved by not consuming spicy or acidic foods, losing weight, and elevating the head while sleeping.

I am a 51 year old woman, I was diagnosed with h.pylori bateria,. Abdominal scan diagnosed severe increase in abdominal gas in the middle of the abdomen and worsen the upper left quadrant. I'm having severe chest pain, pain under the left side of the breast that radiates to the shoulder blade, back and waist pain, upper belly pain with burning sensation and finding it discomfort to sit upright, severe pelvic pain that feels tender from the pubic region to the upper belly. I don't have a good bowel movement, and I don't empty my bowel properly after each bowel movement.

Female | 51

The bacteria might be causing inflammation leading to chest pain, back pain, or discomfort in the upper left part of your tummy. Additionally, pelvic and bellyache could also result from the accumulation of gas which causes bloating as well. To reduce these signs follow the doctor’s prescription on how to deal with H.pylori. In addition, take small meals more frequently; avoid foods that make you gassy, and keep drinking water.

Sir I have constipation and sound comes from my intestine and I have regular neck pain and gastric issue

Male | 34

Fe­eling stopped up where­ poop won't come out easily is called constipation. That gurgling noise­ is likely gas traveling in your intestine­s. Neck pain and stomach troubles sometime­s happen due to stress or e­ating unhealthy foods. Drinking lots of water, eating fre­sh produce, and moving around can help you poop bette­r. To ease neck pain, try re­laxing. Cutting greasy, spicy foods may relieve­ stomach issues.

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.

My mother has gastrological problems so recently I showed her to a renowned doctor who prescribed her some medicines. She started to take the medicines from yesterday there was a tablet which was to be taken after dinner she took it yesterday and she felt as if something is happening to her she can't breathe but it became normal after sometime but tonight same thing happened but it lasted so long and her condition was so bad that she couldn't breathe I took her too a nearby hospital where she was given some injections. I just need to ask why did that happened

Female | 43

Your mother might have suffered from an extreme allergic reaction to the pill she took after dinner. An allergy can be followed by a few different symptoms such as, for instance, shortness of breath, swelling, and low blood pressure. Stop the medicine, and inform her doctor at once. They can suggest a drug, which would not lead to such reactions.

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’m from India. I got a question about chilli powder or I guess paprika in the west. Can chilli cause any problem with my stomach or intestine? Can it cause ulcers? Because the whole of internet says it’s good.

Male | 30

Chilies are a healthy ingredient that most people can eat without having problems. Even though, it is also possible for a stomach to become upset, or intestines to be inflamed with chili. Stomach irritations like these can lead to symptoms such as stomach pain, acid indigestion, or indigestion. In rare cases, some people can develop ulcers after eating extremely spicy foods. These sores can appear in the stomach or intestines' lining and cause discomfort and pain. In case of nausea, an antispasmodic should be taken right before bed.

Morning have been having stomachpain since Friday cos I ate late and am still having pain and I can't tolerate anything cos whenever I lay down I keep throwing up

Female | 29

It looks like you damaged your gastric mucosa or, perhaps, you have a stomach ulcer. It is crucial to see a gastroenterologist as quickly as you can for the accurate root cause of your symptoms and the best treatment. In the interim, it would be wise to steer clear of foods that may irritate your stomach and drink a good amount of water to remain hydrated.
