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 am 19 and I had surgery 8 days ago and had to go on oxy. i’ve stopped taking it about 4 days ago. For the past 8 days i haven’t been able to poop. I have to go very bad but every time i do it’s too painful to pass and i have to suck it back up. i took 4 stool softeners yesterday and 1 the day before. I have to go really bad but i’m not sure what to do and i’m scared to because it hurts so bad
Female | 19
You’ve been struggling with constipation since your surgery and taking painkillers. Pain medication can slow things down in your body which causes constipation. I’m glad you took stool softeners but also try drinking more water, eating lots of fibre such as fruit and vegetables, or doing a little bit more exercise. If it doesn’t help, visit a gastroenterologist.

The last few months I noticed some blood when I pooped. For a while, every time I pooped there would be blood when I wiped and sometimes the bowel would have some blood in it also. Today, there was blood in my diarrhea.
Female | 21
Bright red blood in your stool or on the toilet paper are signs of many things such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures, and sometimes more serious conditions like colitis or even colorectal cancer. You need to see a gastroenterologist about this so they can find out what is causing it and give you the right treatment.

I am a 51 year old woman, I was diagnosed with h.pylori bateria,. Abdominal scan diagnosed severe increase in abdominal gas in the middle of the abdomen and worsen the upper left quadrant. I'm having severe chest pain, pain under the left side of the breast that radiates to the shoulder blade, back and waist pain, upper belly pain with burning sensation and finding it discomfort to sit upright, severe pelvic pain that feels tender from the pubic region to the upper belly. I don't have a good bowel movement, and I don't empty my bowel properly after each bowel movement.
Female | 51
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.

I have constipation from last 1 month.And no pressure during morning and evening toilet. I applied lots of pressure but nothing happened. Also only gas pass during toilet.
Male | 21
It can mean that your intestines are not moving fast enough when you have trouble passing feces and only pass gas at times. Lack of fiber in the diet, not drinking enough fluids, or physical inactivity can cause this. Eat more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains; drink plenty of water and be active to get things ‘going’ again. If it persists, see a gastroenterologist for further assessment and advice.

Female | 20
You have discomfort in the lower abdomen. After sex, you might be dealing with a mild infection or inflammation. It might be the reason for pain and gas problems. Throwing up after meals may also indicate digestive system troubles. If the pain continues, visit a gastroenterologist for further examination.

Female | 44
You seem to have a lot on your plate, but seeking help is a good thing that you are doing. Feeling nauseated and being unable to keep the food down is a common thing for many people and can be attributed to different reasons. In your case, the infection in your stomach lining may be the reason for these issues. Sometimes, treating the infection with antibiotics may take a longer time to work. It is very important to stay hydrated and get enough rest. If you are still having problems, it is necessary to follow up with your gastroenterologist.

Is there excess urine in the fatty liver? If there is, then why is it so?
Male | 18
Excess urine is not usually a symptom of liver cysts. However, people with fatty liver sometimes experience metabolic issues, causing them to retain fluids in their tissues and potentially leading to reduced urine output. For a healthy liver, it's essential to eat a nutritious diet, stay active, and limit alcohol consumption.

Since the ultrasound and urine tests turned out normal, possible reasons for the symptoms may be. Typical causes in little ones can be food intolerance, stress, or anxiety. It is advisable to monitor if she is grey with certain foods before experiencing them or if she is angry all of a sudden and feels sick. Keeping a food diary and trying relaxation techniques such as deep breathing may be helpful. If the symptoms persist, talk to a pediatrician to get a proper diagnosis of the problem.
