Why do I experience appetite changes and excessive saliva?

I loose my appetite for days and some times weeks. I tend to think I don’t eat that much naturally. I feel there are phlegms within my throat. I salivate a lot during those periods. At times too I eat a lot and have the urge to eat more (but this don’t last long).

You could be having some digestive problems. When you don’t feel like eating and your mouth waters more than usual as well as feeling that you have phlegm in your throat; it might mean that there is heartburn or indigestion. These conditions can cause discomfort when one eats food. To relieve the symptoms, attempt to eat small but frequent meals throughout the day; avoid spicy or greasy foods, and ensure that your body remains hydrated at all times. If these signs persist then seek medical attention from a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis as well as treatment options.

Hello my name is Mohammad my mom died from colon cancer and my aunt father side died from lung cancer and recently I am having black ( I mean like really black) poop I haven’t had any iron supplements and I’m not having abdominal pain but I lost a lot of weight in 2-3 months I hardly ever go to ???? and when I go I have very stiff black poop I don’t have eagerness for food and I was very very harmed mentally for my moms lost that I almost had days taking 1.5 kg of ambient (15*10tablets*10gr) I am also studying dentistry so if you speak in medical terms I would probably understand.

Do not underestimate how black stool points to possible internal bleeding of your digestive system, nor your symptoms of losing weight and having no appetite. This points to the start of a severe health issue that would be more likely benign than malignant. Besides, it's best to go through the colon and intestine diagnostics first as well as some other medical tests.

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to discuss my ongoing gastrointestinal issues that have persisted despite my recent surgery for chronic constipation and rectal prolapse. I underwent a laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy, but I am still experiencing significant problems related to anal hypotension and hypocontractility, as well as prolonged Balloon Expulsion Test (BET) results indicative of Type 1 Dyssynergia. Despite the surgical intervention, I continue to struggle with inadequate anal sphincter tone and a reduced ability to contract effectively. These issues have led to ongoing difficulties with bowel control and frequent episodes of constipation. The prolonged BET results suggest that my pelvic floor muscles are still not coordinating properly during bowel movements. Given my history and the current symptoms, I would greatly appreciate your expertise in identifying the next steps for management. Specifically, I am interested in exploring options such as pelvic floor rehabilitation, biofeedback therapy, or any further diagnostic evaluations that may be necessary to address these issues effectively. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your guidance on how we can best proceed to improve my condition.

These issues might be due to problems with the pelvic floor muscles not functioning properly during bowel movements. Pelvic floor rehabilitation could help by improving muscle coordination and strength in the pelvic area, potentially aiding in better bowel control. Another option is biofeedback therapy, which uses sensors to teach you how to coordinate your muscles during bowel movements. Discuss these options with your medical team to find the best approach for you. Additional diagnostic tests might be needed to understand the situation better.

I got ulcers on chewing pan masala

Male | 22

It looks as if you are feeling uncomfortable because of an inflammation of your mouth, which may be due to sores, pain, or sensitivity. The most common of these are a result of the consumption of substances like chewing tobacco. The best thing to do is to clean your teeth using a good dental floss, do not use spicy or acidic foods.

Female | 22

You have the symptoms of acidity and chest burning sometimes, as well as a cough. These signs are possible indicators of acid reflux. Eating a lot of spicy or oily food may cause this. You can start to avoid such foods and eat smaller meals more frequently. Drinking lots of water can also be beneficial. Vitamin supplements may not help this directly, but eating a balanced diet can enhance your general health.

One day I vomiting forcefully then after upper back pain when swallowing doctor suggest me for endoscopy upper gi but it's report normal

Male | 24

Throwing up a lot can cause upper back pain when swallowing. Even if your endoscopy looked normal, other issues like muscle strain or acid reflux might be causing this discomfort. Try eating smaller portions, avoiding spicy foods, and staying upright after meals. This might help. If you’re still having trouble, see your doctor again. There might be other causes or treatments to consider.

Good morning sir Im indian... Working in oman. Last 2 weeks back i go hospital.. Doctor checked told me h pylori bacteria... Given medicines....how i cure.... Pls help me

Male | 35

You might have an H. pylori infection. This bacteria can cause stomach pain, make your belly feel uncomfortable, and even cause a heavy head or cold sweats after meals. It can also lead to stomach ulcers. The good news is that it can be treated with a combination of antibiotics and acid-relief medication. Be sure to follow your doctor’s instructions and complete the full course of treatment to fully eliminate the bacteria. y.
