You’re having a tough time with chronic constipation, weight loss, depression, anxiety, and nervousness. These symptoms may be related. Being constipated all the time can make you feel low and edgy, plus it may affect your weight. Ensure you have plenty of fluids such as water and eat foods that are high in fiber so that you can keep regular. Moreover, tell somebody how you feel because this might help reduce the feelings of anxiety or depression.

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.

I just want to know if there is issues with my stomach, it's just that some times when ever I have a meal in the morning, I just feel that my stomach doesn't feel too well
Male | 31
It seems you have a food problem. You may feel full fast after you eat. Your tummy may expand. You may feel bad in your gut. Eat small meals slowly. Do not eat spicy foods. Do not drink too much coffee or booze. Do not lie down right after you eat. If you still don't feel better, go see a gastroenterologist.

i got mild choking some rice in my throath that make me cough but i can breath can i ask can i drink water?
Female | 61
Sometimes when the food goes down the wrong way it gets stuck in the throat. If you can breathe and cough this means that the airflow is not obstructed. You can try this method: drink a bit of water to help flush the rice down. Do not swallow big gulps as this may lead to more choking interventions. Small sips are recommended and you should keep coughing to remove the dirt from your throat. Get medical care if the problem continues or confirms you have a more serious illness.

I have been taking lomotil tablets 4 times a day for 3 months. Today my stomach is biting and I have frequent bowel movements. Even after taking lomotil tablets, what should I do?
Male | 46
Experiencing stomach discomfort and increased bowel movements, even after taking Lomotil, can indicate your body may be reacting to a change in your digestive health or a possible underlying issue. It's important to stay hydrated and monitor your symptoms closely. You might consider adjusting your diet to include bland foods while identifying any potential triggers. However, since these symptoms have persisted, I strongly recommend consulting a gastroenterologist. They can provide a thorough evaluation and appropriate guidance tailored to your situation.

I haven't been able to freshen up properly for a few days...and I have stomach pain on my left side.
Male | 33
Gas buildup or constipation could create this unpleasant feeling. Not expelling waste regularly causes issues too. Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated. Fiber-rich foods aid waste removal from the body. Mild exercise like walking helps food move along smoothly. However, if pains persist despite self-care measures, it's wise to consult a gastroenterologist promptly.

I feel hungry but can't eat.
Male | 59
Feeling hungry but not being able to eat can be tough. In this case, if stress or worry occupies your mind, it is difficult to have an appetite. Feeling sick and having tummy troubles can also lead to this. It's essential to try activities for fun, such as drinking ginger tea or taking a gentle walk, to help your tummy relax. If your tummy troubles continue, talk to a gastroenterologist about other options.

Hi my girlfriend is having periods since the day before yesterday today morning she felt pain in her stomach particularly on the left side also accompanied by swelling we are suspecting it to be stomach infection but aren't sure about it yet
Female | 20
Your girlfriend might be experiencing acute appendicitis. Symptoms of this are sudden stomach pain on the lower right side with swelling. Appendicitis is when the appendix gets inflamed. If you think this is the case, you need to go to the hospital straight away because surgery is usually the only way to get rid of the inflamed appendix and avoid complications.

I'm a 21 year old recently I have changed my hostel and I'm suffering for 2 weeks the problem is that my p**o is not looking normal colour it looks change every day so please let me suggest some medicine
Male | 21
This can happen when you aren’t drinking enough water, or maybe even because of certain foods you eat. Throughout the day, try to drink more water and avoid new food items that you don’t typically consume. If it doesn’t seem to improve after a few days, then visit a gastroenterologist.

Hello doctor can I take esomeprazole whenever I get symptoms on and off for example only for a day
Female | 26
If you are having symptoms like heartburn, digestive laxatives, or acid reflux on and off, it is advisable to avoid esomeprazole as a self-medication. The possible reason for these symptoms is the malfunction of your stomach acid. However, talking with a gastroenterologist will enable you to arrive at the appropriate treatment alternative. Taking esomeprazole without appropriate consultation may not eliminate the actual cause of your symptoms.

I drink 1 or 2 drops of harpic toilet cleaner as the my stomach is paining
Male | 20
Please, keep in your mind that substances such as toilet cleaner can make your stomach feel irritated that in turn may cause you vomiting or abdominal pain. These symptoms are happening because of the harsh chemicals in such products. To heal yourself, you have to drink lots of water to help whatever toxins inside you are flushed out. However, you must go to the hospital as soon as possible because you have taken a cleaning product that should not have been taken. A gastroenterologist will be able to offer the appropriate assistance and make sure that you are safe.

Pls my husband is having severe stomach pain and biting, what should I do to reduce the pain
Male | 25
Your husband's severe stomach pain with burning may signal a stomach ulcer. This condition results from damage to the stomach's protective lining. For relief, ensure he rests, avoids spicy foods, and takes over-the-counter antacids. However, it's crucial to seek medical attention from a gastroenterologist for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

I’m having frequent urination and abdominal cramps
Female | 28
Most people at times deal with bladder troubles. You may feel an urgent need to urinate frequently, along with stomach cramps. Such symptoms often indicate a urinary tract infection (UTI) or bladder irritation. Simple steps can provide relief: drinking ample water, limiting caffeine and spicy fare, and fully emptying your bladder when urinating. However, if discomfort persists, seeking medical advice from a urologist becomes advisable.

Sever weight loss, loss of apatite, weakness , tiredness
Male | 31
The sudden change in body weight which is the prime reason for decreasing appetite, weakness, and fatigue might indicate a hidden disease. Being anxious about stress and lack of nutrients can be just as crucial as some physical health problems. It is essential to drink plenty of water and eat balanced meals to be healthy. Small, frequent snacks may also make you eat more. I advise you to consult a gastroenterologist for proper treatment options.

Still at anal part I feel masse and iting. Please suggest me some medicine so that I can remove masse (dana) completely..
Male | 23
Constipation can arise from a lack of fiber and hydration, while the mass and itching may indicate irritation or remnants from previous issues. To improve your situation, focus on increasing fiber intake—fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can help. Staying well-hydrated is also crucial. Over-the-counter stool softeners like docusate sodium may provide additional relief. However, it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist to ensure proper treatment and to evaluate any concerns regarding your symptoms.

Gestroic and acidity can couse of high blood pressure ??
Male | 39
You won't find high blood pressure caused by stomach and acidity disorders. However, if you're often in a state of worry because of such a situation, it may have a slight impact on your blood pressure. Experiencing symptoms such as stomach ache, puffy belly, and heartburn can make you feel uncomfortable. You should eat less, avoid spicy foods, and learn to relax through techniques such as deep breathing or yoga, which will help you manage stress.
