Nausea and Diarrhea After Flu Diagnosis: Normal?
I got diagnosed with the flu last night and today I’ve been having nausea and diarrhea. Is this normal or should I go back to the doctor?

Answered on 28th Aug '24
The flu virus can impact digestion, causing nausea and loose stools. Along with fever and coughing fits. To recover, rest up, stay hydrated, keep foods light. But if symptoms worsen alarmingly, reach out to your doctor promptly. They'll advise next steps for feeling better soon.

Hello I am Seemab Hussain Male 38 I am Suffering from acidity from last 10 Year I used PPI every day to reduce the acid i am also having the issue of bloating and acid reflux.
Male | 38
Stomach acidity is the main cause of these symptoms: heartburn, and bloating. Everyday acid-inhibiting drugs, which are used as a PPI pill, reduce the secretion of acid. In addition to medication, lifestyle modifications such as avoiding spicy foods, eating smaller meals more frequently, and exercising regularly can help control these symptoms. Also, drink plenty of water and do not lie down too soon after eating. If your symptoms persist, discuss other treatment options with a gastroenterologist.

I have blood in my stool and anus sore after taking novacip-TZ
Female | 24
Blood stool might be a sign of different disorders, one of which is a sensitive stomach or irritation from Novacip-TZ. Sometimes, this medicine may cause your stomach to have problems and your anus to become irritated. Drink a lot of water, eat fiber-rich foods, and do not eat spicy or fatty foods. If the symptoms continue, it's better to contact your gastroenterologist for more advice.

My 3 year old boy suffering from stomach ache since a week ago I have consulted a doctor he suggested me to to give Anafortan syrup for severe abdominal pain After giving Anafortan syrup also there is no relief from stomach ache My question is can I give colic acid after giving Anafortan 5 hrs after
Male | 3
Stomach aches in children can be caused by infections, constipation, or food sensitivities. Anafortan is a medicine meant to relieve pain, but it may not always work. Combining Anafortan with Colic Acid can sometimes be unsafe. It’s important not to experiment with medicines, especially those for children. Instead, talk to a gastroenterologist before giving your child any new medicine. The doctor can suggest safer and more effective ways to help your child feel better.

I have a huge tummy pain and it hurts a lotl
Male | 21
The tummy ache can be tough to manage. The hurt you feel in your stomach might be from many things such as eating something that didn’t agree with you, having gas, or having a tummy bug. It is a good idea to have lots of drinks and stay in bed. Eating plain foods like bread or rice may also help. If you don’t start to feel better or it gets worse then make sure to go and see a gastroenterologist about it.

It sounds like you have pain, a burning sensation, and a bump or thin vein in your belly. These symptoms could indicate a condition called hernia, where an organ pushes through the muscle. Causes could be lifting heavy things, constipation, or obesity. It's important to see a gastroenterologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

she’s been having pain and symptoms for months , she went to see a doctor once and they gave her medication for her acid reflux but as soon as the time period of using it was over it would come right back, it’s been like this for months and she just gets worse, she’s lost so much weight in so little months and I’m so scared
Female | 44
Visit a gastroenterologist regarding acid reflux of your friend. In case if the symptoms are persistent with the use of over-the-counter medication, then visit a specialist. The loss of weight without any reason is also an alarm symptom which needs to be looked at urgently.

I was feeling unwell, was given some anti malarial, not much change, later typhoid was suspected, but I didn't do a test. I've been on ciproflaxacin, I feel like going for a blood check up but it might not work since I've been on medicine, am asking for advice
Male | 20
It seems that dealing with a complex situation. Being sick and taking drugs can lead to inaccurate results of a blood test. Knowing exactly what is wrong is necessary for the right treatment. Symptoms of fever, stomach ache and general body weakness are common in both malaria and typhoid. Failing to go through the test may complicate matters further. My advice is to wait for some days after completion of the ciprofloxacin course before going for a blood test. This will enable you to get clearer results about your health status.

Female | 18
Your body pain, fatigue, constipation, swelling in the area of private, morning vomiting, and swallowed food are some of the reasons that may make your body feel stressed. These symptoms may guide you to a digestive problem or an infection. To begin, you should increase your water intake, take in small meals, and avoid spicy and oily food. It's essential to get the right treatment and a proper diagnosis from a gastroenterologist.

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.

Hi - i have Mistakenly swallowed clingen forte tablet. Is this an are of concern? Should I rush to hospital?
Female | 28
Gulping down Clingen Forte's tablet inadvertently is a source of alarm. It is composed of Clotrimazole that can cause dizziness, discomfort, nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea. Please, tell your family doctor or the nearest hospital emergency room if you feel any of these signs. Another alternative for you is to have a colonoscopy, which is a diagnostic procedure done by a gastroenterologist.

IBS is a disorder that affects the digestive system and can be triggered by stress, certain foods, or medications. To help manage your symptoms, consider avoiding trigger foods like spicy or fatty foods and try adding more fiber to your diet. Drinking enough water and managing stress through relaxation exercises can also be helpful. If these tips don't work, it might be helpful to talk to a gastroenterologist. They can suggest other treatment options or make changes to your current medications.

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.

Redness after poo, too much pain and lump on anus
Male | 17
You might have an anal tear that could be the cause of this issue. It might result in redness, pain, and swelling. Increasing fluid intake and consuming high-fiber foods may aid in softening stools. Prevent straining while you use the toilet. A small, warm bath for your bottom is good to use too, as a means of healing. In case of constant pain, consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation.

Hi my name is Rachael and I recently cought the stomach flu and I need to know what else to take besides peptobismal
Female | 31
The symptoms are pain in the abdomen, vomiting, and diarrhea. Viruses are the main culprits that lead to this issue, so antibiotics are not suitable. Besides Pepto-Bismol, drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated and rested. Hands-on, dry bread like crackers and rice can also make a difference. If the symptoms get severe or last longer then consult a gastroenterologist.

Difficulty eliminating waste from the body is an issue. Problems peeing and pooping exist. Swollen legs are also present. Different causes are possible. However, kidney or liver problems might explain it all - including high sugar levels. Going to a hospital immediately for an exam and care is necessary.

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.
