Yellow stool after spicy food, weight loss concerns

I have been pooping for about 2 weeks, yellow and sludge like stool. As soon as I eat, I feel the urge to poop. This started after I ate canned food from the store which was spicy. I previously know my stomach does not allow for spicy food without negative reaction, but this feels extreme. I had iron deficiency before, I took tablets and it normalised. My scalp hair growth has slowed, losing weight. I have not added a lot of vegetables to my diet.

You possibly have gastritis, an inflame­d stomach lining. Eating spicy or canned foods worsens it. Yellow, sludge­-like stools signal this condition. Frequent urge­s to poop after meals are common symptoms. Iron de­ficiency may be linked to it as we­ll. Try cutting spicy foods, eating more veggie­s, and drinking lots of water. Consult a gastroenterologist if issues persist.

I don't have a good bowel movement, and I don't empty my bowel properly after each bowel movement.

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.

There are a number of conditions which loose stool may be a symptom, such as infections; food intolerance and inflammatory bowel disease. Difficulty in defecation and excessive straining to evacuate the bowels may indicate constipation. A visit to a gastroenterologist is therefore vital for acurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

I’m wondering what is wrong with me or if I should go to the ER or make an appointment I’ve been having real bad pain on my left lower abdomen hurts when applying pressure to abdomen with stretching sometimes walking and flexing

Female | 26

A condition you see­m likely to have is appendicitis. Your appe­ndix is inflamed. The symptoms: stabbing agony in your lower tummy, mostly on the­ left, getting worse whe­n you apply hand pressure, bend, walk around, or fle­x your body. If you experience­ these signs, head straight to the­ emergency room, imme­diately. Appendicitis gene­rally needs surgical removal of the­ appendix to stop dangerous complications from arising.

Infections or certain medical conditions are the possible causes of diarrhea. When you are already taking rifaximin and still not feeling better, it is crucial to communicate again with your doctor. They can go for more examinations or try other methods to cope with your situation.

Hi, I am a healthy 54 year old male. I have been doing some routine annual lab tests near my home, where they do comprehensive labs for check-up. I have been doing it for several years, and everything is basically normal. However, I just received a lab result, CA 19-9, which is elevated (44), normal is below 34. I actually had this lab test CA 19-9 way back in 7/2022, when the level was 12 (normal). Then I had it in annual testing on 9/2023, and it was 25 (but within normal limits). In the past 6-12 months, I have had normal lactate and amylase levels too. Also, all my other blood test from yesterday were normal, including liver function test (and normal bilirubin), normal CBC, normal CEA level, normal amylase, normal sedimentation rate, normal TSH, normal blood chemistry. Of note, I also had a normal DNA stool test (cologuard) 3 years ago. I also had normal FIT stool test 2 months ago, and also last year (twice it was normal). I have no symptoms and no weight loss, and no signs of jaundice. I am not overweight either, and I do not smoke nor drink alcohol. And no one in my family has had cancer before. As I mentioned, this was incidental, but I would like to know your opinion if this is ominous, and next steps. I have schedule a full body MRI scan for next week too. Thank you.
