I am Piyush and have liver pain and gastric problem with digestion issues last 6 month but gastric problem is last 5 year so I an taking pantop dsr too long time but now done my liver Kidney Function Test so please see my report and suggest medicine urgent basis
Male | 36
The liver function test is necessary for your treatment and you will know what might be wrong. Your stomach problem’s pain could be related to the liver as well. However, just Pantop DSR may not be sufficient for you. In this regard, you need to correct your diet by not eating oil or fat. If present, your doctor may approve additional tests or variants of medications that treat both the liver and the stomach.

I feel my chest and back pain and hand pain from shoulders i have gas problem
Female | 22
You're experiencing chest and back pain, along with pain in your hands and shoulders, due to gas. Gas can cause pain by pressing against sensitive areas and making your stomach feel bloated. You might also feel like you're unable to pass gas. To help with this, try breathing fresh air, stretching, and avoiding foods that worsen gas, like beans and carbonated drinks. Keep drinking fluids, but also be aware that anxiety can make your gas problems worse. If these symptoms continue, see a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis and treatment.

Hello. I was just wondering if this would naturally pass. I accidentally poured too much dry chia seeds( a fourth to almsot half of the bowl) and in mixed instant oats and egg to form a pancake, now im bloated for the entire day and night with sharp pain at the upper abdomen. My stomach is making sounds too Constipated but did have a bowel movement. The pain is still there even after the bowel movement. Do i just keep drinking water? Will this eventually subside naturally?
Female | 21
It's understandable to feel uncomfortable after consuming a larger amount of chia seeds, which can absorb water and expand in your digestive system. Bloating and abdominal pain can occur as your body works to process this. Staying hydrated is key, so continue drinking water, as this can help ease digestion. Additionally, try gentle movements or light walking to aid your stomach. If discomfort persists or worsens, or if you experience significant changes in bowel habits, it’s best to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation.

Can you cure colon cancer stage 4
Female | 37
Curing colon cancer at stage 4 is difficult but it is not impossible. The primary treatment for stage 4 colon cancer is chemotherapy, which aims to shrink the cancer or in some cases radiation therapy is used. Consult an oncologist who can recommend a proper treatment plan for you.

I'm experiencing fever, pain in throat, burning sensation and pain in mouth, discomfort in stomach, weakness, shortness of breath
Female | 23
It sounds like you’re experiencing several concerning symptoms, which may indicate an infection or inflammation. Fever and sore throat are common with viral or bacterial infections. The burning sensation, oral discomfort, and gastrointestinal issues could suggest a viral illness or even acid reflux. Weakness and shortness of breath should be taken seriously. I recommend resting, staying hydrated, and considering over-the-counter pain relievers. However, it’s essential to seek medical attention promptly to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment. A gastroenterologist can provide the best care tailored to your situation.

I'm 17 year old . I'm smoking and doing masterbation from last three years. Drink alcohol eight times and also eating junk food. Now I'm very week . My blood pressure is low at 70/100 . My digestive system also disturbed very badly.
Male | 17
Smoking, excessive masturbation, alcohol consumption, and junk food intake can be a great hindrance for your body before you live your life at its full potential. Weakness, low blood pressure, and digestive problems are manifested by these bad habits most of the time. Limit these addictions, eat healthier foods, and keep hydrated. Also, take a rest and let your body heal itself.

Hey .I got my gallbladder removed onthe 3rd October 2022 but I still get pains on right side .I'm always bloated what is scaring me Is i feel like my muscles or nerves are stiff and always in pains.what could cause more unexplainable complications after gallbladder removal and should be done .I go to the doctor they give me ulcer medd and pain blocks
Female | 32
Having lingering discomfort after gallbladder removal isn't unusual. However, ongoing right-side pain might indicate complications. You could potentially be dealing with post-cholecystectomy syndrome. This condition sometimes occurs due to affected bile ducts or digestive troubles. Consulting your gastroenterologist is crucial for relief. Additional tests or medications may be recommended to manage persistent symptoms. Take care!

i drank too much alcohol im fine now though but want to make sure because im worried
Male | 21
After ingesting a large quantity of alcohol, it is fundamental to introspect about your body. Are you feeling better now? That's good! Most of the time, common symptoms of drinking too much include headache, nausea, and feeling tired. Heavy drinking can lead to damage to the liver and brain. For the sake of the body's recovery, water should be maintained high, healthy foods have to be eaten, and some rest should be taken.

My b12 level < 125, vit d = 9, I took arachitol 6L injection (single dose) and imbisem xp spray for b12, since I have digestion issues and low creatinine, doctor suggested me oral spray for b12 ( i cant take pills nor multiple injections of b12 due to low muscle mass). I was diagnosed with Antral Gastritis and Esophagitis LA grade B in endoscopy in March 2020, Taking ppi’s such as Veloz L, Veloz IT, Omeprazole, Ganaton Total since March 2020. Curretly, I am having indigestion, malnutrition, stomach upset and gastric since long time, sometimes nauseous, will spray recover my b12, are these issues related to deficiencies, if yes, after how long will stomach issues improve?
Female | 35
Your low B12 and Vitamin D levels, along with gastritis and esophagitis, can be the root cause of your digestion problems and malnutrition. The oral spray can assist you with increasing the level of your B12. Continue to take your medications as prescribed and follow up with a gastroenterologist for further guidance.

I am kennedy...and for years i have been taking ant acids when am in an occasion...or during travelling....my mind thought it was acid in the stomach, wen i take ant acid..there is no gas formation in the stomach and no regular farts. So i came to find that wen i take food like beans i expect to have more acid and farts but thats not the case...the farts has no smell...just stomach gas then a sound then a fart...
Male | 23
You've had gas in your tummy without a funky smell. This is normal, it occurs when our bodies process the food we eat. Some foods like beans tend to make more gas. To reduce the gassy feeling, try eating slower. Also, ditch fizzy drinks and split your meals into smaller portions.

Am anand having breathing problem (aspiration )due to GERD for last week. Kindly prescribe tablets for this and food habit for gerd recovery. No pain in chest and abdomen, only breathing issue. Ecg normal.
Male | 37
GERD is a disorder that occurs when stomach acid comes back into the food pipe. The food pipe is what brings the food to the stomach. This can result in breathing problems as well. In this case, you can take antacids such as Tums or Rolaids to help with the acid. Avoid spicy, fatty, and acidic foods. Try to eat smaller meals and do not lie down right after eating. This can make you feel better.

I recently had typhoid & some bacteria infection and was given some medication but after the medication I still feel a little unwell (not so intense) I feel a little het from within
Male | 29
Even after taking the medication, if you're still feeling a bit unwell and experiencing internal heat, it might mean there are still some lingering issues. The problem of bacteria being incompletely cleared out which leads to persistent symptoms is one of the possible explanations. Hydration, taking adequate rest, and going for further observations and treatment are the most important tips to be followed with a gastroenterologist to stay healthy.

I am 19 year old male, I have been experiencing diarrhea for 5 days, blood is coming with my stool
Male | 19
It seems that you're having a difficult time with diarrhea and blood in your stool. Diarrhea for 5 days with blood may suggest infections, inflammatory bowel disease, or hemorrhoids. Drink plenty of fluids, and stick to bland foods when eating. Find out the reason for it by seeing a gastroenterologist immediately and take the necessary treatment accordingly.
