Your liver looks a little stressed. The ALT level is high, which shows possible liver damage. The Alkaline Phosphatase is also elevated. Causes could be alcohol, fatty liver, or medication side effects. Eat healthy foods. Avoid drinking alcohol. See a gastroenterologist for more tests.

Hello. Two weeks ago, during weight training, I had a sudden pain in my lower abdominal. It was so painful that I could not move. I thought it might be cramping, but it worsened every second and in addition, I did not have any period for almost 4 months. I am 15 years old. Though, earlier in the morning before I had this unexpected pain, I had a little spotting. I have then been to the emergency room, where after 3 hours my pain stopped. I have been suspected with a small cyst rupture, however, there was no evidence indicating that the cyst had ruptured. We have done both lab works and an ultrasound and everything was absoultly normal. It is also important to mention that I had a cyst a year ago, but then it disappeared as we did another ultrasound, but for the last year I did not check it. 3 days after my pain, I have done another ultrasound and everything was fine. Another thing to mention, during the day I was at the ER, I came home and I had straight blood when I peed. The next day everything was absolutely normal without any spotting neither red or brown, everything was clear. Since then I have been having pain when I am doing sports activities and when my lower abdomendan is touched. (both left and right side). However, in the last couple days I have been having servere pain in my upper left abdomonen. When I had that terrible pain, it was mainly on the left side. Currently I am having severe pain on my upper left side, and additionally I always have a pain of hunger that feels as my stomach is sore and burns. What is going on? Can it be related to a spleen? Gastritis? Maybe there was not cyst burst?
Female | 15
The pain in your lower stomach area might come from many things. The lab tests and ultrasounds being normal is a good sign. Your pain during sports and left upper stomach discomfort could point to things like a swollen stomach lining or problems with your spleen. Talking to a gastroenterologist is important to find out what is causing the pain and get the right treatment.

I am 29 years old. 20-25 days I have a problem which is anal focal abscess involving internal sphincter, it's very painful, I used many more medicine Can I relief??
Male | 29
A thing like this happens if there are germs in the gland, which causes it to be infected. It leads to redness, pain, and swelling. The best thing is to visit a gastroenterologist. They might have to remove the abscess by a procedure that would diminish your pain. Moreover, the infection can be treated with antibiotics.

I am55 years old lady suffering from upper abdomen pain after having meals my stomach feels floating i cannot eat properly . and always i am having short essay of breath Last five months back i was admitted in the hospital for stomach pain and severe animea i took 4 unit blood since my hemoglobin was 5 that time the dr did endoscopy and colonoscopy but my colonoscopy swas ok but endoscopy Hiatus hernia grade 2 was diagnosed but still I facing the same problem
Female | 55
The grade 2 Hiatus hernia, which you were diagnosed with earlier, could be the causing the symptoms. This is a situation in which your stomach part is being pushed back up into your chest. Making changes to your diet, eating less food, and steering clear of your trigger foods can make your symptoms go away. Your gastroenterologist needs to keep checking you to make sure your condition is being managed properly.

But since last 4 days he is complaining of stomach ache and going to.potty each time. The stool is normal and soft as compared to previous times and flushable. Please suggest.
Male | 8
I advise you to take your child to a doctor. Based on proper evaluation and diagnosis, the doctor will be able to determine whether the problem faced is due some underlying medical issue such as food intolerance, infection or some other reason. Based on that, treatment may be suggested which may include certain dietary and lifestyle changes, medications etc.

My age is 34 years.i am serving in the Army as a sports man. I have drank alcohol been for 5-6 years. Normally one time in the night 120ml to last 180 ml Three times a week. But now I feel like vomiting and heartbeat increase The eyes would become red and the body would become red. after taking just one sip. After that I didn't feel like drinking at all, Then gradually I started hating alcohol. then after I have stopped drinking alcohol for 3 months.I have got the LFT test done and that report is also normal.All this is good, but what happened to me that I started hating alcohol. This is what I want to know
Male | 34
Your symptoms, such as coronary heart and redness, indicate that your body may not be tolerating alcohol very well anymore. This is a natural body response and it could be that your body wants to protect itself from the possible negative effects of alcohol. The development of an aversion is a good sign for you to stay away from the thing that is not good for you rather than a bad one. I suggest you pay more attention to how much water you drink, a healthy diet, and physical activity. In case the symptoms continue or become more disturbing, please ask a gastroenterologist for narrative advice.

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.

I take opioids for recreational use and also for anxiety. They have been a life saver for me. But now all of a sudden I am experiencing extreme constipation. It is worth nothing I've had chronic constipation issues my whole life pretty much. I took 2 glasses of MiraLax and 3 Dulcolax stimulant laxatives.
Male | 23
Opioids are known to cause constipation by slowing down intestinal movement. Chronic constipation can lead to further complications if not addressed. Taking MiraLax and Dulcolax was a good start, but it's also important to drink plenty of water and eat high-fiber foods to help improve the condition. Additionally, including light exercise, like walking or yoga, in your routine can be beneficial. If the constipation persists, it would be a good idea to consult a gastroenterologist for further advice and support.

I am 24yrs old female and i have a lots of itching in my anus and while passing stools blood comes out and there is pain. Due to this i have a lots of trouble in sitting or walking and no matter how much food i eat i am able to paas stools only after 3 days..i checked my anus and i saw extra skin around the anus so please tell me what should i do??
Female | 24
You might have a condition called hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids can be responsible for such manifestations as itching, pain, and bleeding during bowel movements. The extra skin you notice around the anus is probably swollen blood vessels. To help relieve the discomfort, try increasing the fiber intake, drinking enough water, and using over-the-counter creams. If your symptoms do not subside, see a gastroenterologist for a more thorough diagnosis and treatment.

I have ast/alt ratio of 1.77 but the time my blood was examined I was drunken much. Can you guide me its still same even I am drunk or not. It was ast 339 and alt 191. Kindly help
Male | 43
The report based on an AST/ALT ratio test result shows a liver enzyme ratio of 1.77 units which is slightly higher than normal and indicates the presence of possible factors e.g. liver damage, drinking alcohol, taking certain drugs. Elevated AST and ALT levels may alert the liver damage. You can ascertain the precise state of your liver by retesting your blood after you get sober and getting the necessary advice from a hepatologist.

Why my stomach suddenly cramping?

An unexpected stomach cramp can be due to varied reasons, such as gas, indigestion, menstruation, or bowel disorders. In case the cramps keep repeating or happen more often, you are recommended to meet your gastroenterologist and seek proper diagnosis and treatment.

I was diagnosed with intestine obsertruction on 04 May 24, Subsequently, I was treated with antibiotics and painkillers. Urine catheter was inserted on 05/05/24 and removed on 10/05/24. However, I am having irritation (burning) while urination and bleeding on first urination in the morning. I am in constant pain.
Male | 28
You might have a urinary tract infection (UTI). UTIs may occur after using a urinary catheter and can make you feel like peeing is painful or that it causes bleeding. This discomfort would not kill you; however, take enough water then consult with a urologist. More antibiotics might be recommended to deal with the problem and ease the symptoms.

I have stomach pain and visit doctor and take medicine but I can't feel better
Female | 23
Different things such as indigestion, gastritis, or infections can cause stomach pains. When you go back to your doctor this time you let the doctor know that what they gave you last time did not work. The doctor might need to run more tests so they can find out what’s happening and give you something that’ll make you feel better.

I have been suffering from digestive issues and stomach disorders for about a month. I feel like it takes long for my stomach to digest food. I feel hungry but I can't eat because of this issue. If I do, I'll get acid reflux and other symptoms.
Male | 20
Gastritis makes the stomach lining inflamed. Slow digestion, lack of appetite, and acid reflux occur. Stress, spicy foods, and medications cause it. Eat small meals frequently. Avoid caffeine and alcohol. Stay hydrated. Manage stress through breathing or meditation. See a gastroenterologist if symptoms don't improve.

I'm not sure from when bubble or foamy urine started.but I noticed it on 28th August night. later I found more bubble in urine at 29th August night and 30th August morning... now The bubble or foam is present during morning after waking up..but due to drinking too much water , the rest of the day the bubbles becomes almost zero or very few ...after flush there are still 5-6 bubbles stays that bursts after few seconds.. I'm giving the photo of today's urine after waking up in the morning (3rd September).. one thing to mention that I'm taking rablet 20 before breakfast everyday.. I had Pangastritis and H.pylori infection one year ago...later it's found that H.pylori is gone but still gastritis is present in small area.. now a days I'm also having a little problem with fart(gas) and very mild pain in lower back that can not be felt until given full attention.
Male | 26
You have a problem with foamy urine which may have come from the consumption of excessive protein in your diet or some kidney malfunction could be the cause here. The foam in your urine may provide certain medications like Rablet 20 as a possible cause. It's good that the bubbles reduce throughout the day when you drink water, but if you notice a persistent issue with foamy urine, it's best to talk to a urologist about it.

Female | 39
Pain starting in the middle of the chest and then extending to the person's back is a possible symptom of either acid reflux or heartburn. When there is an increase in swelling and at the same time intense pain, the possibility of inflammation in the digestive system cannot be ruled out. Eating smaller meals, avoiding spicy dishes, and sitting up after meals are some non-pharmacological measures largely recommended for acid reflux. Consult a Gastroenterologist for personal therapy when no result is seen after medication use.

Hi. It’s regarding my younger sister she’s 4. After Eid, she stopped eating and lost weight a bit. But she’s been eating well again for the last 2 weeks so her appetite is back to normal. She had an ear infection and flu right before she lost her appetite but her appetite loss happened after finishing the antibiotics. However, over the past months she always says ‘my leg hurts’ and she says it’s her ankle. It doesn’t make her cry or anything and it doesn’t stop her playing like a wild animal ???? but today she has blood in her poo and on tissue when wiping it was bright red blood it’s happened before when she was constipated she didn’t drink much water yesterday and my other sister also got the norovirus so it could be that- her poo was watery. She also catches colds frequently
Female | 4
Seeing blood when she goes poo could mean she's constipated. That can make poo hard to pass. It may also be from norovirus, which causes diarrhea and tummy aches. Her sore leg needs checking too. That pain may relate to her other problems or signal something else. Make sure she drinks lots of water and eats healthy foods to help her tummy feel better. If the leg pain gets worse or won't go away, take her to the doctor.
