Answered on 23rd May '24
If you have been diagnosed with jaundice, you may be advised to follow a healthy and balanced diet. Refrain from fatty, oily, and spicy foods. Individualized diet recommendations are best to be obtained from a gastroenterologist. In general, it is recommended to eat warm/hot foods, but drinking carbonated beverages like Coke or 7UP should be avoided if possible. Oil-free and non-spicy soup can be eaten when warm.

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.

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.

Dear Doctor, From last 10-15 days I am having upset stomach with cramps and gas build up, it seems the stomach has become hard and full and despite of having light foods my stomach gets upset and have to visit the washroom quite frequently, the stool is not watery but semi liquid, I'm also taking probiotics like curd and Rinifol Capsules but also it doesn't help much and have taken the full course (5 days) of antibiotics like Zenflox OZ but didn't get much of relief. I would request you to please suggest me good medicines for the same. Thanks and Regards
Male | 41
Your signs of upset stomach, cramps, gas, and frequent semi-liquid stools have led us to think that you might have a gastrointestinal infection or inflammation. You must remain hydrated by drinking plenty of water and steering clear of spicy or fatty foods. You might want to try some over-the-counter medications like Pepto-Bismol or Imodium if your symptoms are bothering you. Besides, go to a gastroenterologist to eliminate the possibility of any serious conditions and get the right treatment if necessary.

My niece's stool occult blood test is positive and sigmoid colon is thickening at acute stage
Female | 7 month
Blood hidden in poop is occult blood. A swollen part of the sigmoid colon needs treatment fast. Look out for stomach pains, changes in how you poo, or losing weight. Infections, inflammation, or growths may be the problem. Doctors must do more tests to find the reason. Then you'll get medicine or surgery.

too much stomach pain and headache
Male | 20
Underlying causes of stomach pain and headaches may include stress, poor diet, maybe even a stomach virus, etc. Drinking lots of water, eating light and easily digestible foods, and making sure to get some rest is best. If the pain persists or becomes more intense, it's advisable to go for a check-up from a gastroenterologist.

I have a sudden pains near the belly button and right lower corner of the abdomen which is sharp and it comes suddenly in the evening .
Female | 18
Your symptoms suggest appendicitis - an inflamed appendix. Pain starts sharply near the navel, then shifts to the lower right abdomen. Fever, nausea, vomiting often occur too. Act quickly! Appendicitis needs urgent hospital treatment, maybe surgery. Delaying risks major complications. Head to the ER without delay if these signs match your condition.

My mother is experiencing stomach ache in the lower abdominal portion . The pain is neither to fast nor to slow, but it happens continuously. Whenever the medicines given the pain goes away. Otherwise no symptoms were notified. What should I do now?
Female | 58
This type of pain may occur due to many reasons like gas or a digestive problem. The fact that it disappears after taking the medicine means that it is related to the stomach. To help her heal have easy digestion foods, and drink enough water. If the pain does not stop or becomes unbearable, it is important to visit a gastroenterologist to find out the specific issue.

dysphagia eating with water
Male | Jawed
Swallowing water seems easy, but sometimes it’s not. Dysphagia makes it difficult. You may cough, choke, or feel like food gets stuck. There are different causes, like weak muscles or nerve issues. Sip slowly and sit up straight while eating. If swallowing remains difficult, see a gastroenterologist.

But again rectal bleeding and severe pain started and there is wound pist radiotherapy just at bottom inside layer of anus.
Male | 33
It's possible that the wound from your radiotherapy treatment has not fully healed or that there may be other factors contributing to your symptoms. You should communicate openly with your doctor about your symptoms, concerns, and treatment history, as they will have the best understanding of your problems.

I’ve had constipation for six months and I have been using dulcolax every week to help, however this week when I used my dose, I felt nauseous and didn’t feel my normal budge in stool. I suspect I have impacted stool or some sort of blockage. I tried 2 enemas however after using them (lying on my left, inserting it for 5 minutes and staying still) it didn’t work. My main question is If I’m having impacted stool should I take miralax powder , dulcolax pills, or suppositaries, or a third enema Or book a colonic treatment? thank you
Male | 17
If you feel sick after taking Dulcolax you may need to try a different method. When stool is impacted it means that the poo has become stuck and will not come out very easily. Use Miralax powder which can help to soften it. You can mix it with a drink and take it according to the instructions on the packet. Make sure you also drink lots of water. If there is no change when using Miralax then you should speak to a healthcare professional for further advice.

My dad is suffering from gastric problem. He took medicines. But he didn't get relief.
Male | 45
Your dad's gastric issue is concerning. The meds don't seem effective. Stomach problems bring pain, bloating, and discomfort. Medications may fail if diet or stress cause the issue. Spicy foods, large meals, and stress worsen symptoms. Smaller portions, stress management, and avoiding trigger foods may improve his condition.

My wife mildly bulky pancreas (at head in region) hai kiya kare
Female | 35
Your pancreas is bit puffy, more around the head part. Inflammation or fatty changes can cause this. It brings pain in your stomach, trouble digesting food, and weight going down. Eat healthy foods with little fat to help. Don't drink alcohol. Try to keep normal weight too. See a gastroenterologist regularly to check on this condition.

Female | 45
It’s good to know your test results are normal, but persistent mild pain, gas, loss of appetite, and tiredness could indicate digestive or other internal health issues that need further evaluation. You may benefit from consulting a gastroenterologist to explore possible causes related to digestion, and if symptoms continue, a gynecologist to revisit the uterine health aspect.

Will dorn therapy helps in curing ibs/ibd disease because am taking dorn treatment till now 12 sessions completed but no improvement.
Male | 24
Ibd and Ibs are complex conditions that involve inflammation and dysfunction of the gastrointestinal system. They require medical management and treatment approaches that are specific to these conditions. Treatment for IBD and IBS needs a combination of medication, dietary modifications, lifestyle changes, and sometimes psychological support.
While alternative therapies and complementary approaches may have their benefits it's crucial to rely on evidence based treatments for conditions as complex as Ibd and Ibs.
