I have a huge tummy pain it hurts so bad
Male | 21
Many different things can cause severe pain in your stomach. Some days you eat too much, or sometimes food isn’t digested properly and that’ll hurt too; even catching a bug could give you these aches. Drink lots of water when it hurts so bad plus get some rest with easy foods like toast or crackers until dawn break. If this doesn’t help – don’t wait any longer before speaking to a gastroenterologist about what could be wrong.

Hlo mam I'm 19 yrs old I'm having abdominal cramps in lower right abdomen, left, sometimes back, also having mucus along blood in stool sometimes, fatigue this happening not continues for weeks
Female | 19
You are likely enduring some digestive issues. The cramps in your lower abdomen, which transfer from right to left, and even to the back, as well as the mucus and blood in the poop and fatigue, can be signals pointing to the fact that your gastrointestinal system may be out of balance. Such symptoms may appear in conditions like Crohn's disease or an infection. It's crucial to undergo a thorough physical examination with a gastroenterologist who can identify the cause and provide the treatment.

Hello, I have been experiencing large amounts of blood in faeces when I use the toilet and some pain for the last two weeks. I think it is linked to drug and alcohol use, as I'm only 23 but have been abusing several pills (sometimes 30 a day, ibuprofen/codeine) and drinking a lot for around 3 years now on and off. I have also developed mouth sores on the corner of my lips for no apparent reason and I think this may be related. Do you know what this could be?
Male | 23
Blood and pain when using the toilet indicate problems inside your body. Those mouth sores reveal that something is wrong with your health. These issues likely stem from drug or alcohol abuse. Your liver, stomach, and even immune system could be damaged. Getting help from a gastroenterologist immediately is vital.

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.

Male | 16
The possibility of bloating and shortness of air can be caused by some digestive and respiratory system\disorders. These symptoms, including the temporary lack of consciousness, may pose a risk for a more severe problem. Urging immediate help from a doctor should be the first step to diagnosing the problem precisely and getting the right treatment.

Male | 22
You have inguinal hernias and back issues, which could be causing increased pain and discomfort in your lower abdomen and groin. These conditions might also explain the tenderness and worsening pain when you move. It's important to address these problems to prevent them from getting worse. Consulting a gastroenterologist about your hernias and back issues could help improve your condition and overall well-being.

Male | 30
You could have piles which are also referred to as hemorrhoids. The following indications could be the symptoms of piles if you see blood in your stool, feel pain or discomfort around your bottom, or notice swollen lumps. Piles occur when blood vessels in the area become swollen and inflamed. Eating fiber-rich foods, drinking water, and avoiding straining are some methods that can help alleviate the symptoms.

Female | 50
You are experiencing some stomach upset and feeling sluggish as well. If you have had a fever, cold, dry cough, or/and muscle aches for the last fortnight or more, this might indicate gastroenteritis (stomach flu) or other viral infections. Rest, take fluids only in plenty, and eat simple easily digestible meals. If the condition persists or becomes severe seek medical attention without delay.

Gerd derealization eoe I really need help
Male | 17
Acid reflux happens when stomach acid goes up your food pipe and makes your chest burn. Feeling unreal is called derealization where things do not seem real. Throat inflammation is when your food pipe gets swollen and irritated.
To feel better, avoid foods that cause acid reflux like spicy or fried foods. Do things that help you relax like deep breaths or a walk. Talk to a gastroenterologist about medicines that can help.

Was having mild stinginess in my throat in january and was prescribed rabeloc for 1 month followed by esomeprazole for another month. After the completion of my dose my throat was fine and the medication stopped. But in 1 week I was having a severe stabbing chest pain stomach pain . Is it because I stopped the medication or something else. As before starting the medication I never had this issue.
Female | 25
Abruptly discontinuing the medication could trigger your symptoms return. Stomach discomfort and chest pain are potential side effects when stopping acid-reducing medicines too quickly. Gradually tapering off these drugs is crucial to avoid such complications. Consult a gastroenterologist to discuss the symptoms you're experiencing and receive proper guidance on managing them effectively.

Female | 24
Acid reflux might cause your chest pain. A lump-in-throat sensation, bloating, and diarrhea after meals are signs. Stomach acid flows back up the food pipe. Smaller meals and avoiding spicy or greasy foods help. Don't lie down after eating. Drink lots of water too. This condition is when stomach acid flows up. Visit a gastroenterologist if the problem continues.

Male | 25
These signs may be caused by stress, anxiety, or a medical issue. It’s good that you’ve tried Brahmi and Ashwagandha but stomach problems are worrisome. I advise seeing a gastroenterologist to consider other solutions that could make you feel better. Techniques for managing stress as well as relaxation exercises might also help.

Female | 44
You seem to have a lot on your plate, but seeking help is a good thing that you are doing. Feeling nauseated and being unable to keep the food down is a common thing for many people and can be attributed to different reasons. In your case, the infection in your stomach lining may be the reason for these issues. Sometimes, treating the infection with antibiotics may take a longer time to work. It is very important to stay hydrated and get enough rest. If you are still having problems, it is necessary to follow up with your gastroenterologist.

Female | 19
Being cramps, constipation, blood in the stool, mucus in the stool, low-grade fever, fatigue, and funny sounds in your abdomen are all signs that could indicate a problem in your stomach. If you're not feeling well, you should think about infections, inflammation, and probably allergies as the causes of the pain. We need to pay attention to our nutritional intake, drink water regularly, see a specialist for a full check-up, and, get the proper treatment for diseases.

I have eaten Kirkland multivitamin gummies more than 8 in one day since 3 days I am feeling like symptoms of nausea dizziness stomach upset pain in ribs getting anger easily changing in mood swings . What to do now
Female | 17
Taking too many gummy vitamins can cause issues. Exceeding the suggested dose leads to vitamin overload - nausea, dizziness, stomach upset, rib pain, and mood changes may occur. To recover, stop the gummies and drink lots of water. This flushes excess vitamins out. Eat a balanced diet for natural nutrient intake. If symptoms continue or worsen, consult a doctor.

I FEAR DOCTORS!!! I was put in a coma in 2016 & was near death the 3rd day. I didn't come out of the coma till the 7th day. I found out last year, that my diagnoses was kept from me. I was told in 2016, it was only bc of trigeminal neuralgia, septic shock and ARDS. HOWEVER, I learned last year that I was also diagnosed with pulmonary edema, emphysema, a mild heart attack, a cyst on my right kidney, a damaged liver, they removed my gallbladder .... along with the Septic Shock, trigeminal neuralgia and ARDS!! I also saw that I was overdosed on the 3rd day in the coma on 1 of my epilepsy meds. I've been an epileptic since about a year old from a spider bite. So, throughout my life I've taken multiple meds. In 2016, I was taking 400mg of Lamictal, 300 mg of tegretol (which i was overdosed on in the coma) & I was also on 500mg of Dilantin then. I went to the hospital for weeks bc, my chest had been killing me, I had trouble breathing bc it hurt to take a breath, I got wicked headaches often, dizzy spells & body weakness. I was put in the coma the next day. Again I was only told about the Septic Shock, trigeminal neuralgia and ARDS. Shortly after the coma, my neurologist put me on 600 mg of Lamictal, 400mg of toprimate, 2000mg of levetiracetam & 1800 mg of felbamate. In 2019, my old neuro told me i had "mental issues". Throughout the years since, I've had sepsis 1 time & Septic shock twice. After I moved & found a new neurologist I learned that toprimate & Lamictal weren't for my type of epilepsy. Although i have seizures often, they were not helping my epilepsy or any of my health. I saw a neuro physiologist after my VNS battery was changed & he diagnosed me w late stage 1 alziemers due to the seizures, meds & 2 brain surgeries on my temperol lobe and agreed that Lamictal & toprimate weren't helping. My neurologist took me off toprimate but wanted to have my kidneys, liver & heart checked before he took me off Lamictal bc both levetiracetam and Felbamate can mess w those & taking me off Lamictal he plans on upping one of those. So he put me on Lamictal xr to help stop my dizzy spells & had me see a cardio, a pulmonary, a liver doc and a kidney doc. They saw the scaring on my heart & an irregular heart beat, the cyst on my right kidney, emphysema & my liver scared, w fatty tissue and enlarged to 21cm. When they asked me about pains and or unusual issues i had, I only told my neuro physiologist first, bc I remembered what my old docs put me through. Ive not been completely diagnosed bc my liver will swell up for weeks (& I know when it does bc pains r indescribable), but then the swelling will go down. I've chest pains when my liver swells, I also have periods when it hurts all around my stomach & back to stand up straight or sit straight up. My periods been irregular for years. I'll be incapable of eating sometimes bc of pain all around my stomach. The right side of my back is excruciating sometimes. I'm incapable of holding urine & sometimes I don't feel I have to go or realize I'm going. My urine is red every few weeks but will go back to almost orange or sometimes ... it'll look like water. My new doctors have seen it all in urine tests. My feet swell up sometimes to where my legs will hurt when I where socks bc theyre too tight. I don't get headaches as often now, but when I get them, the pain can't be explained. I've diarrhea constantly & I have for years. My shoulders were in unreal pain this past year a few times, for a few days. I'm not asking for a recommendation bc again, I fear doctors due to them overdosing me in a coma & keeping medical info & records from me. I just want an idea of what this is!! Yes I smoke. I have since I was 14 (26years). No I DO NOT AND WILL NOT DO DRUGS!!! Biggest reason being my epilepsy, but I've also lost a friend who gave his life to drugs when he got out of the military. I do smoke pot right before bed (I do it to put me in another world to help me sleep bc I have flashbacks of abuse from my x and honestly, i will say that sometimes it'll help the pain im in). I HAVEN'T TOUCHED ALCOHOL IN 3 YEARS! From the end of 2018 to 2020, I was an alcoholic due to doctors refusing to help me, abuse from my x and the pains I was experiencing. However, when I left my x, I stayed w christian friends & w/in 1 month, I gave my life to Christ ???? When pains act up or symptoms, I simply pray ?. BC God IS ? Im living proof to that!! He's the only reason I made it out of my coma. It's on the records that, they didn't comprehend my coming too. However, it's also on the records of an eeg when I was in it that I was having a dream while in the coma. (& Its A dream that I will never forget!!?) There's times when I'm indescribably nautious! The pains and issues I've explained come and go non stop. What is this and why is it ignored by my new docs who tested everything and diagnosed what was found?
