Can I get reinfected with stomach virus?
I had a stomach virus last week, and when I wasn’t showing symptoms, I shared a beverage with somebody who later that day presented symptoms and became ill. Will I get reinfect
Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 22nd Aug '24
Reinfection worries arise when drinks get shared with a sick person. Gastroenteritis, the stomach virus, stems from germs like viruses, and bacteria. Diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, stomach cramps are symptoms. Handwashing frequently, avoiding shared drinks, and staying hydrated with fluids prevent illness.

I woke up to a weird feeling in my chest and whenever I do fast or intense activity for example jump or run I feel something go up to my throat and make me cough it doesn’t hurt just a little weird

Your symptoms could be of acid reflux or the more severe form called the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Acid reflux can be defined as the condition where the liquid in the stomach drains back into the throat area, causing a burning sensation in the chest and throat. I recommend you to see a gastroentroogist who will help you to diagnose your condition and propose the proper treatment.

Pancreas problem and fatty liver
Male | 22
Pancreas problems and fatty liver are two separate medical conditions that can occur independently or sometimes in association with each other. In some cases, more advanced treatment may be necessary. For example, advanced fatty liver disease may lead to cirrhosis, which may require a liver transplant. For pancreas problems, surgery may be necessary in some cases.
Consult with a gastroenterologist or a hepatologist to find out what is the problem exactly.

I feel with no efforts, I vomit everything I eat even water, and I run to washroom frequently
Male | 26
It seems like you might have a stomach bug or infection. In case you vomit everything even water and you have diarrhea frequently, try to remember that a virus or a bacterium irritates your stomach and intestines. You may experience this along with excess fluid loss. Besides, drinking water or ginger ale in sips will help you to keep hydrated. Stick to low-calorie food like crackers and rice. If the symptoms increase or persist, make sure to seek medical attention.

I am 24 years old and by mistake I Swallow cool lip. What should I do? It is dangerous or not ?
Male | 24
Swallowing a cool lip (assuming you mean a small object or part of a lip balm) is usually not dangerous, but it can potentially cause discomfort or minor issues. It's best to consult a gastroenterologist to ensure there are no complications. If you experience any pain, difficulty breathing, or other unusual symptoms, seek medical help immediately.

I have such a stomach ache in the morning. Like loose motion. I have gastritis too. Met an OPD doctor earlier. Then they gave me medicine to drink. Domperidone Bifilac Pantaprazole (Omeprazole) Gaviscon No recovery yet
Male | 18
A tummy ache and diarrhea can be quite uncomfortable, and gastritis can make it worse. Gastritis is when the stomach lining gets irritated, causing pain. The medicine you have should help, but it may take time. In the meantime, drink plenty of water and stick to bland, easy-to-digest foods. Rest, and if it still bothers you, visit a gastroenterologist.

Your stomach could be upset due to gas or indigestion. Rarely, it may be due to constipation. Always keep your hydration levels high, consume easy-to-digest foods, and rest. If the pain continues or increases, it's better to consult a gastroenterologist.

I have a stomach pain what I eat and what I treatment do
Female | Eu
Some of the primary culprit are eating beyond the limit and eating hot food items. Sometimes a tummy bug could also cause this. For a bit of relief, you can begin by employing a food approach: small portions of light stuff only. Intake of water should be raised; equally, avoid spices as much as possible and do not go anywhere close to fatty foods too. See a gastroenterologist possible time so that further assessment will be done.

A fissure is a tiny crack in the skin. It happens due to dryness or constant irritation. To treat it, apply moisturizing cream to keep the area soft. However, if it persists or worsens, you should get it checked by a gatroenterologist.

Hi. I'm 43 years old woman and I was diagnosed back in my County with Chron's disease ileocolitis. I'm in the UK now and I'm having some problems with the doctors here. I need to ask some questions because I'm feeling sick again.
Female | 43
Abdominal pain, diarrhea, fatigue, and weight loss are common symptoms of this disease. The cause isn't fully understood, but genetics, immune issues, and environmental factors likely play roles. To manage it, eat a healthy diet. Take prescribed meds. Reduce stress when you can. See a gastroenterologist regularly for checkups.

Hi Sir, kindly help me out to get out confusion and frustration. 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.Sometimes 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 My 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) along with Amixide h(chlorodizapoxide +amitryptiline) . Whenever my gut starts paining I took it and pain fade away.I am very confused about this.Stomach pain goes away and comes back. About year ago this problem has started. And just take 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. Can you guys help me to correctly understand the disease and ways to overcome it.
Male | 29
It seems that this disease has reached you without any diagnostic problem, and it turns out to be IBS.
The doctor associated with the management of your symptoms and provision of relief is putting you on medication which includes Librax (Clinidiumchlorobenzodioxide) and Amixide H (chlorobenzodioxide amitriptyline). This particular type of drug worked effectively in relieving you from the pain just like it had no existence at all.
It is necessary to emphasize that IBS can be long-term and would probably demand long-term therapy. You are advised by your doctor to follow the instructions as they have been given and take all the medications that have been prescribed to you as directed. Close visits with the gastroenterologist are vital to achieving progress and controlling the treatment by your doctor.
If you had GAD in your earlier years, you need to make some lifestyle modifications since it can affect your gut health. On the one hand, Lexapro withdrawal caused intestinal ulcers because your gastroenterologist instructed me to stop using it, but on the other hand, it was necessary to prevent ulcers.

Female | 23
It sounds like you’re feeling bad in your stomach, finding it hard to breathe, and also the pain in your back is severe. These symptoms can arise from various issues, including digestive problems, muscle strain, or stress. It's essential to monitor how you feel and consider manageable changes, such as staying hydrated and avoiding heavy meals. However, because of the complexity and intensity of your experience, I strongly recommend consulting a gastroenterologist.

Male | Ankit
The symptoms you have could be the digestive issues you are having or the changes in your body after surgery. Stomach upset can occur since the body is getting used to the absence of a gall bladder. Mouth sores might be connected to the changes in your digestion affecting your oral health. Eating small, frequent meals, avoiding fatty or spicy foods, and staying hydrated may help. Nevertheless, you should consult a gastroenterologist for individualized guidance.

I am 66 years old having lower abdomen pain for one month.I have taken norfloxacin 400 mg and pain killer for seven days but not cure.What to do?
Male | 66
This type of pain may be felt in this body area due to reasons like the digestive system, bladder, or muscles that are causing the pain. As the medication you had failed, the better thing to do is to visit a gastroenterologist. They may ask you to have other tests like an ultrasound scan to find out the definite cause of your pain.

What is normal level of lipase
Male | 17
An individual can find the chubby substance-dissolving macromolecule in this system. It commonly breaks down between 0 to 160 units per liter when it is in a healthy person’s bloodstream. Having a high level of lipase can indicate something wrong with your pancreas. Some signs that someone has too much lipase may include pain in their stomach or feeling sick; they might also have a fever, etc.

If you're experiencing constipation and soft stools, try increasing your water intake, eating a fiber-rich diet, maintaining regular mealtimes, and staying physically active. Stress reduction techniques can also help. Consider consulting a gastroenterologist if the issue persists or worsens, as it may be related to some medical condition.

Male | 20
Loose motions, diarrhea as doctors call it, can be troublesome. Certain medicines like potassium citrate, magnesium citrate, and vitamin B6 may cause it. These can upset your stomach sometimes. To help, stay hydrated, eat mild foods. Perhaps ask your pharmacist about adjusting the B6 dose or trying a different form.

I am 38 yrs old women suffering with rectal pain. I got treatment for fissure 6 month back and about 2 month i took different medicines for the same. I am still having pain in my anal region and unable to sit in one position as its pain all the time. Visited so many doctors but still the situation is same.
Female | 38
Anal pain is chronic and can be due to unhealed fissures, inflammation, or muscle tension. This is why you must keep the anal area clean and well-hydrated. Have a trial with over-the-counter medications. These might ease your symptoms, but if they persist, I encourage you to go to a gynecologist and get a detailed evaluation.

it started a month ago, at night i felt a burning sensation in my chest for about an hour and then followed by back pain and chest pain in the morning. Few days before that i was having a feeling that i was getting choked at night for 3 consecutive days whenever i tried to sleep. I went to the doctor and he said it is possibly GERD and prescribed me medicines but the medicine didnt help and i had this very intense back apin that got into the shoulders and left arm. Then i went again to the doctor and he made me do ecg but results were normal. So he said maybe symptoms of GERD. But now its been month and i still have a constricting feelingin my chest and a sharp needle like pain below the chestbone that comes and goes along with a back pain.
Male | 21
Stomach acid flowing back into the esophagus might cause your issue. It's called GERD. GERD brings chest pain, back pain, choking sensations. Sometimes needles-like pain under chestbone too. Eat smaller meals for GERD relief. Avoid spicy foods. Raise bed head while sleeping. If it persists, a gastroenterologist's visit is essential. They'll evaluate further and adjust treatment if needed.

My dad response and reaction had come slow after he had alcohol a week back ...He was fine and very active until then. He used to alcoholic in the past and was ordered not to have alcohol anymore. We have consulted him in Manglore hospital and currently we are giving these tablets...he is improving but very gradually. I feel he is lacking many of the nutrients due to which this is happening.Could you please check. Urosocol 150 Evion 450 Sompraz 40 Cardivas 3.125 Laslilactone 50
Male | 64
It appears that after consuming alcohol, your father may have difficulty reacting and responding too slowly. This could be because his drinking depletes nutrients from his body. Although the pills can help, it is essential for him to also take a lot of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains which are full of vitamins and minerals that promote recovery.
