Why do I have recurrent stomach aches post food poisoning?
Is it normal to be experiencing tummy aches every time I eat 3 weeks after having food poisoning?

Answered on 24th Sept '24
It's usual for people to experience stomach discomfort after food poisoning. The digestive system remains delicate. Stomach aches following meals could indicate inflammation or irritation in the stomach or intestines. Smaller portions and avoiding spicy or fatty foods are advisable. Staying hydrated and consuming gentle foods like bananas and rice is recommended. However, if symptoms persist, it's crucial to consult a gastroenterologist.

Acid reflux problem gerd
Male | 23
Acid reflux, also known as GERD, is a common condition where the acid from the stomach flows up the esophagus. Symptoms are heartburn, chest, and swallowing. I would refer people with these symptoms to see a gastroenterologist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

My name is aarti. I am 27 year old female. I have been suffering from diarrhea for 5 days but for the last 2 days I am urinating more frequently. I urinate 5-10 minutes after drinking water and it feels as if something else will also come out with the urine.
Female | 27
You may be suffering from a UTI and diarrhea. UTI can cause frequent urination and a feeling of discomfort in the bladder. UTI and diarrhea can sometimes occur simultaneously. A good way to improve your health is by drinking a lot of water and going to the doctor so you can get antibiotics.

My mother is experiencing stomach ache in the lower abdominal portion . The pain is neither to fast nor to slow, but it happens continuously. Whenever the medicines given the pain goes away. Otherwise no symptoms were notified. What should I do now?
Female | 58
This type of pain may occur due to many reasons like gas or a digestive problem. The fact that it disappears after taking the medicine means that it is related to the stomach. To help her heal have easy digestion foods, and drink enough water. If the pain does not stop or becomes unbearable, it is important to visit a gastroenterologist to find out the specific issue.

My mother. Aged. 71. She is suffering from motions.
Female | 71
When someone has the motions, it means she might be passing a lot of stools or watery ones. It could come from a tummy bug or, maybe, something she ate. The best thing to do is to get her to drink lots of water to replace the fluids she has lost and to eat bland foods like rice or bananas to calm down her stomach. If it continues to be the same, a gastroenterologist can be of assistance.

What could be causing my abdominal pain and burning sensation, with a mild enlargement in size of my liver and spleen? I'm concerned about the possibility of a serious condition like colon cancer. Can you provide any guidance or information?
Male | 19
Mild enlargement of the liver and spleen, without any focal lesions, can have various causes and may not necessarily indicate a serious disease like colon cancer. Conditions like fatty liver disease, viral infections, inflammation, etc. can be associated with the swelling of these organs.
A proper diagnosis can only be made by a healthcare professional like a gastroenterologist after considering your complete medical history.

I was going through fever this week, after taking proper medical treatment fever gone but after that lose motion get started and now they're also gone but now there is heavy weakness.
Male | 31
You've had such a bad time with fever and diarrhea. Both could be the cause of your weakness later. The fever and the diarrhea ached your body thus, making you feel tired. You must hydrate yourself with water and soup. Light and easily digestible meals should be your priority.

Severe burning pain in upper abdomen happens with hunger, food, and drink.
Female | 17
You likely have gastritis - this is when your stomach lining becomes irritated. Gastritis causes burning pain in your upper belly. This pain occurs when you're hungry, eating, or drinking. Spicy foods, stress, and certain meds could cause it. Avoid foods that trigger the pain. Drinking water may help too. If the pain doesn't go away, visit a gastroenterologist.

I am a 20year old who has been vomiting everything I eat or drink for the past one week and I have been having headaches frequently, what could be the issue
Female | 20
Might it be the case that you are having a migraine? Headache-inducing and vomiting-causing migraines. When you throw up, the body is attempting to eliminate the pain. Drink a lot of water and rest in a dark and quiet place. Stress or certain foods should be avoided as they are triggering. If symptoms persist, it is important to see a gastroenterologist.

I am a 25 year old male having stomach pains early this morning. I am throwing up, nauseous, constant pain in stomach, slight constipation, hurts to move around and hurts to touch my stomach
Male | 25
Quite often such symptoms indicate the existence of gastritis. Gastritis is a condition of the stomach caused by the inflammation of the lining. Some of the reasons for this can be depression, alcohol, or drugs. To get rid of your condition, you can stop the use of spicy foods, alcohol, and caffeine, with the possibility of over-the-counter remedies. Keep well hydrated and try to get the rest you need. Another option will be to consult a gastroenterologist if the symptoms get worse or last for a long time.

I am 24 years female with anal fissure on and off for 1 month. I am on laxative, but when I stop the laxative my stools becomes hard and again tearing the anal region causing pain while pooping. After a treatment the pain becomes better. Is there any fiber supplement which will softens the stool and helps my fissure to heal
Female | 24
What is probably happening is you have an anal fissure, which is a small split in the skin around the anus. The pain that occurs during bowel movements is the main symptom. Hard stools can make it worse. Fiber supplements like psyllium husk or methylcellulose may help you ease your bowel movements which are the reason for the hard stools. Also drinking plenty of water is very good for your digestion.

Male | 50
Constipation is a condition when you find it difficult to regularly to poop. It may be that your health conditions are the reason for it. Fiber-rich foods, such as fruits and vegetables, as well as plenty of water, are important. Additionally, try to incorporate some more physical activity into your daily routine, even a short walk can make a difference. Speak with your gastroenterologist to find other safe ways to control your constipation without using too much sodium picosulfate.

I have difficulty in eating and drinking cuz whenever i eat, after a few bites I have difficulty in swallowing food like I feel tightness in chest and shortness of breath like I take deep breaths while eating and I fear while swallowing food as if it might block my trachea or I would choke. Last year, I gave my exams and during my exams I took too much stress and didnt eat anything (eating very little whole day or even just bites of food due to exam stress). After that, I encountered somehow same issue as I developed nausea which interfered with swallowing so I feared swallowing. This time, when I gave my exams, I am encountering the situation I told you. What can be this thing and what measures should I take?
Female | 24
You might have Globus pharyngeus, a condition stress or anxiety triggers. It makes swallowing hard, tightens chests, causes shortness of breath, and scares you while eating. Eat slowly in calm places, and breathe deeply. Relax through deep breathing exercises or meditation helps. Drinking lots of water with meals aids swallowing. Consult a gastroenterologist if issues continue.

Hello doctor, good day In fact, the issue is that my aunt has been suffering from stomach cancer for about a year and a half, and her stomach was removed, and after several pressurized intrapertinol aerosolized chmotherapy procedures, she is now suffering from intestinal adhesions and is always nauseous and has no food. Or he cannot eat liquids and vomits as soon as he eats anything. Please help if there is a cure.
زن | 37
You get adhesions when your intestines occasionally stick to each other after surgical procedures. Some symptoms you might feel include nausea, vomiting, and/or trouble with eating or drinking. These adhesions are "sticky bands" that can occur inside the belly. To ease these symptoms, her doctors may prescribe her specific drugs, or otherwise, she must change her diet, or rather, undergo surgery to have her adhesions removed. Thus, she must see a gastroenterologist for individual consultation and treatment.

Hello, I am a 19yo male. Months ago, I had some neurological symptoms and went to hospital. There, a blood test showed that I had really low B12 vitamin (under 90 pg/mL). I had some shots to increase B12 levels and hospital adviced me to go to GP and have gastroscopy and colonoscopy to find the cause of the deficiency, because it was not normal at that age to have that low b12 levels. So, the days I was taking the B12 shots and planning to go to a GP, I had some bowel symptoms, including changes in stool size (small-thin and rounded / however not hard to pass), and rarely a little blood on them. When I went to the GP, I told him the whole story and told me that I had to do some other blood tests first to see if there is any gastric inflammation and then we would see if endoscopy is needed. After doing several blood tests (ECR, CRP, etc..) and faecal calprotectin test, GP told me that results were normal and did not show any inflammation in stomach or colon, so no endoscopy was needed. He told me that these symptoms were from functional gastrointestinal disorders and hemmorhoids. All of these happened like 6 months before. Now, I still have small-thin and rounded stools (rarely i pass normal stools but most of times they are like that) - blood is very rare and in small amount. Generally, my diet is normal (includes fiber), i drink a lot of water, no anxiety, not anaemic, normal weight and I exercise. So, these changes in bowel habits that happened months ago (without having any lifestyle change) + little blood rarely + the B12 defficiency I had, make me think I should visit another GP and push for a colonoscopy. I tried to search if increasing B12 would cause such changes in bowel habits, but did not find something. The only family history I know are that some first degree relatives had a small B12 defficiency without symptoms and second degree relative had gastrectomy a lot of years ago. I am a little panicked because Ive been seeing colon cancer is on the rise among young people and unreasoned bowel changes that dont leave soon + blood (however mine is very rarely and little) may be red flag. Especially most cases in young people are advanced stages becaus they are not caught early. Thanks for reading till the end, what do you suggest me to do? Go to another GP? And even push for endoscopy? Finally, could the cause of hard pebble stool be somehow (?) the elevation of B12 so my system need some time to go back to normal again? Because B12 deficiency was slowly developing for years.
Male | 19
While low B12 levels can affect the body in many ways, they usually don’t impact bowel habits like this. It’s great that you’ve had some tests, and they’ve ruled out any inflammation in your stomach or colon. Your symptoms might be due to functional gastrointestinal disorders or hemorrhoids, which are quite common and generally not too serious. Keep an eye on your symptoms, and try not to worry too much. However, if you’re still concerned, getting a second opinion from another doctor might help give you peace of mind.

It may signal bleeding in the stomach or intestines. The change in color could be caused by something you ate or a more serious problem. If you also have symptoms such as stomach pain, fatigue, or weight loss, you should see a gastroenterologist as soon as possible.
