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 am a 51 year old female and I have been having diarrhea and squishy poops and sometimes the poops can’t come out so I have to use my finger to get them out, so I am wondering why I keep getting these symptoms?
Female | 51
Having diarrhea or soft poop could be due to many things such as infections or food sensitivities while difficulty passing stool could mean constipation. You need to eat more fiber, drink plenty of water, and also go for a medical check-up to know exactly what is wrong with you.

morning azithromycin 500 mg and night flagyl 400 can take
Male | 44
You're probably going through an infection. Your doctor is probably targeting different kinds of bacteria using azithromycin 500 mg in the morning and Flagyl 400 mg at night. Do not stop taking the medications even if you start feeling better. Prolong the treatment to ensure complete eradication of the infection. If you have any concerns or notice any unusual side effects, it's important to let your doctor know.

I have been feeling dizzy for the last 3 days and I am not able to digest whatever I am eating, also the blood test report is attached , so please suggest me
Male | 25
From the blood test results, it appears that there are inadequate levels of iron in your system. This can cause vertigo and trouble digesting food. I suggest you add such foods as spinach, lentils, or red meat which are rich in iron to your diet. Also if the physician orders it, you may consider taking an iron supplement that may help alleviate these symptoms.

My daughter keeps getting worms but I don’t know why
Female | 6
Your daughter might have a pinworm infection. Pinworms are tiny creatures that enter the body via the mouth. When infected, itching near the bottom frequently occurs at night. Your doctor can provide medication to remove these worms. Proper handwashing is crucial to prevent spreading the infection further.

On 11th of June I remove my cholesterol test and it was high around 231 and my weight was 83 but today on 15th when I check my weight is 81 so two kg reduce and going gym as well and last 5 days no oil no masala..eating avocado fruit and healthy dieting ...so today I am going with my family for dinner so I can eat something from restaurant?
Male | 27
The level of bad cholesterol in the blood is capable of giving you a high risk of heart problems. Reaching a state of healthy weight and the right food choices one can use as supplementary units can help reduce hypercholesterolemia. Because you've been doing so well, you may eat out, but make sure you choose wisely. Prefer alternatives like roasted chicken or fish with greens instead of those stewed or cheesy dishes.

I am having bubbly pee and itching in whole body since a long time. I also have piles
Female | 45
You could be having a urinary tract infection as a result of a bubbly pee effect and an allergic reaction where your body is itching all over. The piles too might be a reason for some pain. Drinking plenty of water to water down the infection then using creams for anti-itch to your skin. To relieve the piles, try including fiber in your diet, and do not cut the effort when you go to the bathroom. If the symptoms are persistent or worsen, you should visit a gastroenterologist.

I 37 years of age. I wanted to ask, i usually experience motion sickness when i travel. So i do take meds to ease up the nausea. Last week i went to get my normal meds over the counter coz am to travel next week. The pharmasist adviced me i take dulcolax 5mg a day or 2 before i travel to clean out my bowels as he said it will reduce the nausea. Please advice coz i dont want to take the medicine and it ends up interfering with my trip. I also have a case of haemorrhoids so
Female | 37
Motion sickness can be defined as nausea and dizziness when one travels. The phenomenon can be caused by the confusion in the brain between the signals sent. Motion sickness meds are usually taken. However, Dulcolax is a laxative intended to be used for constipation treatment, not motion sickness. It may result in cramping and diarrhea. It is crucial to refrain from any other drugs and consult a gastroenterologist.

I am 35 year old , mujhe qabz ki shikayt ha medecine li h lekan aram nahi aya 2 din se pakhana nahi kiya
Male | 35
It seems like you are experiencing constipation. Constipation refers to the difficulty in having a bowel movement. It may happen to people who have an insufficient amount of fiber in their diet, drink less water, or are less active. Eat fruits and vegetables, drink a proper amount of water, and take a short walk. If the issue persists, the best step will be to have a conversation with a gastroenterologist who will give you some advice.

Female | 16
The symptoms you report, such as blood in the stool, alterations in bowel habits, abdominal pain, headache, nausea, chest pain, and low blood pressure, could signify different things. The reasons behind these symptoms range from infections to inflammatory conditions. From my personal opinion, you should pay attention to these signs and get help from a gastroenterologist immediately.

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.

Sir mujhe cronic pancreatitis he or mujhe agna 25000 prescribe ki he..... Aaj lunch time par khate huye lene ki vajah se 2 medicine galti se leli to ab kya karu?..
Male | 18
You've made a mistake - took 2 Agna 25000 tablets instead of 1. This is dangerous. Taking too much can cause side effects like stomach pain, nausea, and dizziness. Since Agna 25000 treats pancreatitis, overdosing can harm you. Contact a gastroenterologist or go to the hospital right away. They'll guide you on what to do next.

Hlo ma'am mai 3 may ko unwanted 72 tablet Li thi aur kl se mere pet me drd h aur loose motions h kya kru
Female | 25
I understand you’re feeling sick after taking Unwanted 72. The pain in your stomach and diarrhea can be due to the side effects of the drug. This happens because it contains hormones that affect your body. Drink lots of water so that you don’t get dehydrated. Eat light meals such as bananas, rice, and bread. Take a rest and do not eat spicy or greasy foods. If the symptoms persist then please visit a gastroenterologist.

I have issues in my anal as lymph came out of anal n it's hurts when poop tym it's very unbearable pls suggest me what's this so I can get treatment.
Female | 44
It seems that you have an ailment known as an anal crack. This condition is characterized by cracks in the skin around the anus, which can lead to blood and/or injury in the rectum. This may be from being constipated, having diarrhea, or simply surviving hard stools. To relieve the pain and the healing process, you should see a dietician who will give you foods rich in fiber. Also, a glass of water every day and the use of over-the-counter creams to cover the corroded area can be used to help ease the pain and promote the area to heal. For sure, the area troubles you, however, you are urged to seek help if the techniques have failed and no improvement has been noticed.

I had gerd for past 3 months and now facing breathing problem for last three days when eating, sitting, and lyedown. ECG normal. Am already taking Bp tablet. No throat pain,only upper abdominal discomfort when breathing.please give suggestion
Male | 37
You might be having a problem called aspiration. This is when the stomach acid comes up to the throat and causes trouble breathing. Sometimes, it may also cause pain in the upper abdomen. This is a very serious problem that needs to be treated by your gastroenterologist. Changing your eating habits and taking medications can help control this situation.

Hey, I am a 22-year-old boy, and I have stomach pain. I feel dizzy due to this; I have a vision issue. Since yesterday, when I go to the washroom to pee, when I pass the urine, it's got a dark yellow colour in it. It is not normal, and please suggest the best you can.
Male | 22
Having inflammation in the abdomen, dizziness, unclear or distorted vision, and the fact that the urine is darker shade of yellow than usual might point to something. Make an effort to drink more water. In addition to this, you can consume simple and dry meals, as well as, avoid coffee, tea, and alcoholic drinks. If no improvement is experienced, then visit a doctor for a check-up.

Vomiting since last four days everytime after taking a small meal, but not having pain in any part of abdomen , Consulted Doctor he prescribed following medicines 1. Sompraz 2. Cintapro 3. Lafaxid 4. Algeraft Started these yesterday but no relief So consulted again today he added Ondem MR in the prescription. Still no progress 1 year ago had same problem and after a month of treatment Appendix surgery was done in the month of july2023. Since then had no problem but started again since last 4-5 days
Male | 13
This could be because of a few different things such as gastritis, acid reflux, or even recurrent appendicitis. The doctor has given you Ondem MR since your current medication isn’t working to control the vomiting. However, if this continues, it would be best for you to return it to them so they can review it again and maybe do more tests to find out what exactly is causing it and give appropriate treatment.

Hello Doctor, 2 calculi of size12.4mm and 7.3mm have been noted in gal bladder one in fundus and other in neck respectively in ultrasound. I am having issue of pain in abdomen and back and nausea and headache. After the results of ultrasound what will be further treatment required. And also want to know if still endoscopy is required after detection in ultrasound?
Female | 33
Based on the ultrasound results, it seems that you have gallstones in your gallbladder, which is causing abdominal and back pain, nausea, and headache. And endoscopy is not required to diagnose or treat gallstones. But in some cases, an endoscopic ultrasound is used to get a better view of the gallbladder and surrounding structures. I recommend consulting with a gastroenterologist or a surgeon for further evaluation and treatment options.

Suppose there is a foreign body like a small fish bone or chicken bone which got stuck in small bowel or has perforated small bowel and entered peritoneal cavity. As we know upper endoscopy and colonoscopy cant reach small bowel then how do we diagnose such small object and which imaging would be the best for diagnosis?
Male | 22
In case you accidentally swallow a fish bone or a chicken bone and it gets stuck in your small bowel or pokes a hole, it can cause serious problems. These conditions can be the cause of symptoms like strong abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and fever. To diagnose this, a CT scan of the abdomen is the best imaging test. It is capable of revealing if there's a foreign object or a hole in the bowel. When this occurs, surgery may be necessary to remove the object and fix the bowel. Don't wait if you have these symptoms, visit a gastroenterologist.

I have problem with my stomach it is like something is eating me inside
Female | 24
Maybe you are having stomach pain. Stomach pain may occur for several reasons, for example, due to overeating or having a stomach infection. In another case, it might be a consequence of stress or eating food with hot spices. If you want to feel better, you should eat smaller portions, avoid hot and spicy foods, and look for ways to relax. If the pain continues or worsens, go to a gastroenterologist.
