You may be experiencing acid reflux symptoms that can manifest as a burning pain in the arms, chest, and upper back, as well as with chest and back pains when lying down. It can also be associated with insomnia. To help with this, try eating smaller meals, avoiding acidic foods, and not lying down right after eating. You can also try elevating your head while sleeping. If these tips don't help, it's essential to see a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and treatment.

Alt - 61 Ast- 42 I have also ulcerative since 2 year Should i worries about it
Male | 25
ALT and AST, which you have pointed out, are liver enzymes that can indicate whether your liver is functioning properly. You have a slightly high ALT which could signify liver dysfunction. On the other hand, the thing that you mentioned, ulcerative colitis, is a chronic disease that inflames your colon, thus causing symptoms like stomach pain, diarrhea, and blood in your stool. To be sure both of your liver and colitis are being treated properly consult a gastroenterologist for a through examination.

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.

I am aged 22 ..l have been having stomach pains and cramps with a yellow discharge..after days after l took benzathine for my tensils .what might be the cause ?and what should l take to stop the problem?
Female | 22
These could be symptoms of a bacterial infection in your stomach. Sometimes, the use of antibiotics such as benzathine can deplete the good bacteria in the stomach, which may result in those symptoms. To eliminate the problem, you should consider ingesting only plain, easily digestible foods such as rice and toast. In addition, make sure you drink enough water to keep yourself hydrated. If the symptoms don't go away, it's a good idea to visit a gastroenterologist for more tests and treatment.

Hi I am a 21 year old female who has been travelling in Europe for 1 months. I have been having diarrhoea for the past week on and off and have been taking anti diarrhoea tablets. These block me up and cause stomach cramps. What would you recommend? Thank you
Female | 21
From what you've been saying, the diagnosis could be you having traveler's diarrhea, a typical thing when exposed to new places. Anti-diarrhea pills can make things worse by stopping your body from getting rid of the bad stuff that causes stomach cramps. It is best to replenish your fluids by drinking clean water and consuming sports drinks or oral rehydration solutions that contain electrolytes. Stick to the basics, bland foods like rice, bananas, and toast for a while until things settle down. If your symptoms persist, consult your physician for medical advice.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) can be quite difficult. It brings about pains similar to ulcers and a sore lower back which, can be a nuisance. The source is not yet fully known, but some factors such as stress, diet, or the sensitivity of the gut may be affecting it. However, there is no magic solution, but learning to cope with stress, eating healthy, and some light physical activity can help alleviate the symptoms.

Male | 38
I would suggest that you see a gastroenterologist who will give you the right medical help and care. A lump at the top of your buttocks that's more difficult to swallow could suggest any condition, including a perianal abscess or a pilonidal cyst.

Having a inflammation while passing stool , i had a loos motion like 2-3 weeks back and since than facing inflammation nd burning sensation near anus area now while passing stool .
Male | 30
An anal fissure means there's a tear near your anus. It happens when you have hard, difficult bowel movements. Or it can occur with diarrhea. This will cause pain and burning when you use the bathroom. Eating foods with fiber helps make your stool softer and easier to pass. Drinking lots of water is good too. Warm baths can soothe the irritated area around your anus. If symptoms don't improve soon, see your gastroenterologist.

I want to get my mother checked for Piles. She has some problems. A preventive check up for Piles.
Female | 58
Piles oriented as hemorrhoids can sit uncomfortably. Defining features are potential pain, itching, and bleeding in the area around the bottom. Strains during bowel movements, sitting still long, or lacking fiber in the diet are reasons for it. Alternatives may include a high-rope diet, drinking lots of water, and applying top-rated ointments on the skin. Take care of your diet and go to a gastroenterologist if necessary.

I was a mild stinging in my throat and was prescribed rabeloc rd for 1 month followed by esomeprazole for another month. After the course of the medication I was free from the symptoms but then I started having a terrible chest pain heartburn stomach ache one week after I stopped the ppi.
Female | 24
You might feel chest pain, heartburn, and stomach ache. It could be acid rebound. Your body makes more acid when you stop taking PPIs fast. This causes symptoms like heartburn and stomach pain. To help, eat smaller meals. Avoid foods that trigger it. Use antacids if needed. But talk to a gastroenterologist before changing anything.

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.
