Managing Eating Issues Due to Medicine Side Effects
I can't eat because of side effects of previous medicine

Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 1st Aug '24
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.

I got severe stomach pain
Male | Rishab
Severe abdominal discomfort can arise from various factors, including indigestion, food intolerances, infections, or even stress. Common symptoms may include bloating, cramping, or changes in appetite. To alleviate discomfort, try staying hydrated, eating small, light meals, and avoiding spicy or fatty foods. Gentle movement, like walking, may also help. However, if pain persists, worsens, or is accompanied by other concerning symptoms like fever or vomiting, it's important to consult a gastroenterologist. Professional evaluation will ensure proper diagnosis and treatment, allowing you to feel better swiftly.

Male | 54
It seems like your H. pylori infection, past small gut surgery, and high blood pressure may be behind it all. The hurt could mean swelling, ulcers, or other problems down there. Make sure to tell your doctor about the latest hospital trips and how bad the ache is. They might want to run some more tests or change up your meds to help ease the pain.

Sir I have pain in my stomach but in my empty stomach I get blood through sputum and after that my headaches and I'm not able. To eat any proper food
Female | 22
Coughing blood, headaches, and difficulty eating - these signs suggest a stomach issue. An ulcer or inflammation could be the culprit. Ignoring it risks bigger problems, so see a doctor soon. For now, spicy or acidic foods may worsen symptoms, so choose easy-to-digest meals instead. Stay hydrated by drinking lots of water.

Hello , I have pain in my lower abdomen below my belly button and continues over my belly button and when I press my belly it hurts on the right side , I have COVID and I had some gastrointestinal symptoms could this be something more serious like appendicitis? I also have gas and burping
Male | 22
It's important to seek proper medical evaluation and treatment for your symptoms. Abdominal pain can be caused by appendicitis. And Covid 19 can also cause gastrointestinal symptoms. Inform your doctor about your symptoms, medical history, and covid19 status. Gas and burping alone are not specific to appendicitis.

Female | 20
According to the information you have given, it appears that you might have symptoms such as too much gas and bowel sounds. These could result from different things including what you eat and drink habitually, problems with digestion or even tension. Make sure you take your time when eating; stay away from food items that make one gassy plus drink enough water. In case this doesn’t help then it would be wise to see a gastroenterologist for further assessment.

I'm 19 years old and experiencing pain while swallowing
Male | 19
Many factors can lead to discomfort while swallowing, such as throat infections, allergic reactions, or irritation from spicy foods. Some of the most common symptoms could be a feeling of soreness, a scratchy feeling, or difficulty in swallowing. Hydration and consumption of smooth, soft foods can also help to reduce the irritation. If the pain does not subside and particularly if events like fever, severe pain, or shortness of breath follow, then it’s important to immediately consult a gastroenterologist. The healthcare worker will find out the root cause and offer you the best suitable treatment.

Stomach pain after taking I pill
Female | 34
Emergency birth control pills occasionally cause abdominal discomfort. Their effect irritates the stomach lining, inducing temporary ache. Resolve symptoms naturally by consuming plain foods, drinking water, and resting sufficiently. However, persistent severe pain demands contacting a gastroenterologist promptly. Mild indigestion usually subsides independently within reasonable duration.

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.
