Vaping at a young age can harm your body, leading to symptoms like sickness, shaking, and persistent stomach problems due to the chemicals in vapes. It's good that you've noticed a connection between vaping and your symptoms. Quitting vaping and smoking is the best choice for your health. Give your body time to heal, and focus on healthy habits like eating well, staying hydrated, and exercising. If your stomach problems continue, consult a gastroenterologist for advice.

I have acne from 5 years now I have heard about isotretinoin and I want to know if I can use it

Female | 19

Chronic stomach problems can have various causes, you need to get it diagnosed properly by a gastroenterologist. To address these issues, consider dietary adjustments, stress management, regular exercise, and maintaining a food diary to identify triggers.

I’m 18 I’ve been having some bowel issues. Around 2 years ago, I had a big IBS flare up (according to my doctor) that lasted for a while. Just recently, after not having much problems since, I’ve been feeling constipated. This occurred after being under some stress from a couple school tests (though, to me, the stress didn’t seem that much different from other stresses I’ve had). I would feel the urge to poop, but very little would come out (even though I felt like there’s a big piece that needed to). When I would push any harder, I could maybe get some more small pieces to come out, though it would burn and be discomforting. This would go on for a while until recently I would have some mild diarrhea. I know this is a bad habit, but I did some reading on the internet and learned that I may be having overflow diarrhea. I still have the feeling of being backed up (that a big piece of poop needs to come out) and nauseous - however not much abdominal pain (yet). I just tried a suppository and unfortunately it led to nothing but some mucus coming out. I’ve been anxious about this, however I’ve started to wonder: Am I getting bowel issues because I’m nervous, or am I nervous because I’m getting bowel issues. I’m here because I’m wondering if all this is an IBS episode, or if this is something more urgent. Both my parents believe it’s nothing but IBS, however, I am a little concerned that it could be something more dire. I’ve been trying to keep my mind off of it, however it is quite hard after knowing a suppository wouldn’t work.

I understand your concerns. The symptoms you're describing could be related to stress-triggered IBS, but it's essential to rule out other potential causes. Persistent changes in bowel habits, especially with discomfort and anxiety, warrant a visit to a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation. They can determine the cause and provide appropriate guidance for management. Don't hesitate to discuss your symptoms openly with your doctor for accurate diagnosis and peace of mind.

i have pain in abdomen .

Female | 25

Stomach pain is no fun. It might seem like a small issue, but it could indicate something serious. It could be just gas or something you ate that disagreed with you. Or maybe it's a bug going around. But don't ignore it—conditions like appendicitis require medical attention. Stay hydrated and eat bland foods. If the pain persists or worsens, see a doctor. While belly aches are common, some need treatment.

im 16 years old and 2 years ago i had anorexia and i made myself vomit like forced myself to do so but it didn’t take long for my body to get used to vomiting and ever since then i couldn’t stop doing that…my stomach hurt a lot if i don’t vomit and i think my body doesn’t accept food anymore

Female | 16

Bulimia Nervosa may be the problem you are facing. Frequently vomiting may be the reason behind this. It can result in a stomach ache, throat irritation, and even tooth decay. Your body requires food to maintain good health. A physician can treat you by giving therapy and suggesting a proper diet.

I have drunk alcohol after it I have vomiting blood but first vomiting it is normal but after it I have put finger and start vomiting so less quantity blood come out

Male | 21

Throwing up blood after drinking alcohol is a major indicator. There might be irritation or bleeding happening in your stomach. Putting your finger down your throat to make yourself puke will make things worse. You need to quit drinking booze right away and see a doctor. Don’t do anything else that will irritate your stomach more, and try to drink some water so you don’t get dehydrated.

Gas formation,bloating heaviness after meal ie. Post meal fullness.please suggest remedy.

Male | 65

It looks like you're experiencing gas, bloating, and a feeling of fullness after eating. This could be due to eating too quickly, swallowing air, or consuming foods that are hard to digest. To reduce these symptoms, try eating more slowly, avoid fizzy drinks, and include probiotic foods like yogurt in your diet. Drinking peppermint tea might also help soothe your stomach.
