Gut troubles in older people can occur for many reasons like diet, not enough fiber, or not drinking enough water. Common signs are hard poop, bloat, and feeling bad. Tell your dad to eat good food with lots of fruits, veggies, and water. Exercise can also help keep things moving well.

My nme is kunti my age from 42 yesars tow day start from vomting
Female | 42
If you suddenly feel nauseous, there are several reasons for this. It could be that what you ate doesn’t sit well with your stomach, you have a stomach bug or it’s due to stress. Take small sips of water often not to become dehydrated and try eating plain things such as crackers or toast. See a gastroenterologist immediately if vomiting continues.

Your stools can vary sometimes, that's normal. If you see changes in appearance or frequency, it may relate to your food, stress, or illness. Certain items you consume might cause it. Eat fiber, drink water, relax more. But if it continues, check with a gastroenterologist.

Sir my mother is suffering from loose motions since 6 months she is going to laterine approx 50 times in a day.
Female | 60
Going to the bathroom fifty times a day is not normal. This may signify a health issue that requires immediate care. It could be the case that loose motions for a long time may be as a result of infections, food intolerances, or inflammation in the gut. It is crucial to consult a gastroenterologist immediately to find out the exact reason and to start the right treatment.

Hi. I'm a 19 year old female and I have been having problems with my indigestion system as a whole for a long time now. It started with having really bad heart burns along with my burp tasting yeast like I started having piles that became worse over time, bleeding really bad then I had to watch what I eat so they don't become worse. I still have them but they don't bleed anymore, just sometimes depending on what I ate or other factors. Then ever morning when I wake up I have this burning sensation in my stomach, everyday, it's hurts very much, then I have it through out the day sometimes, making it uncomfortable for me. Then lately my stomach has been painful, burning, there's just a lot going on. I have been using Eno but the difference isn't that much, my stomach just burns and hurts. It's starting my affect my life because it's something that it happening to me lot and I'm unable to go about my daily routine sometimes because of consist heartburns, camps, burning stomach and piles that just won't go away. Thank you.
Female | 19
These symptoms like heartburn, yeast-like burps, bleeding piles, stomach burning, and pain could be due to a condition called gastritis, which you're experiencing. Inflammation of the lining of the stomach is called gastritis, which can be caused by stress, some food, or bacterial infections. For these symptoms, try to stay away from spicy, acidic, and fatty foods. Eating smaller meals more often can be another way to normalize your metabolism. The best choice is to go to a gastroenterologist who provides the proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I am 21 years I'm suffering so much anal pain rectum bleeding cmg while passing stool backpain coming after passing stool and so much pain cmg after passing stool bowl moments are cmg lumps feeling low hole day
Female | 21
Hemorrhoids could be the reason for the bleeding from the rectum, pain while passing stool, and feeling lumps. You may also have back pain after going to the bathroom, which could be the cause. Hemorrhoids are the bulging blood vessels around the anus. You can decrease the pain by drinking water and eating fiber-rich foods, and creams that can be bought without a doctor's prescription. If the symptoms continue, it is better to visit a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and treatment.

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.

I feel something breathing in my lower stomach
Female | 30
You feel a strange movement in your belly, and it's a bit frightening. However, it might be normal body processes occurring. Your intestines could be moving gases through them. Alternatively, muscles contracting can cause that sensation. Consuming meals quickly or certain foods can trigger this feeling. To find relief, try taking smaller bites, sipping water, and eating gentle foods like rice or bananas. Visit a gastroenterologist if the problem persists.

What happens when you eat food after a fly was on it
Female | 42
If you consume a fly that has landed on a food item, then you may become unwell. Flies are the source of growth factors (germs) that can cause you to get sick. In the aftermath of eating contaminated food, you may encounter stomachache, vomiting, and diarrhea. For recovery, you should drink adequate water, take some time off, and not eat more of the same food.

Can you please tell me if anything on my ultrasound would indicate liver problems or anything else of concern? EXAMINATION: ABD COMP ULTRASOUND CLINICAL HISTORY: Pancreatitis , chronic. Increased pain right upper quadrant. TECHNIQUE: 2D and color Doppler imaging of the abdomen is performed. COMPARISON STUDY: None FINDINGS: The pancreas is obscured by bowel gas. Proximal aorta is also not well seen. Mid to distal aorta is grossly normal in caliber. The IVC is patent at the level of the liver. The liver measures 15.9 cm in length with coarse echotexture and loss of architecture definition consistent with infiltrative change, nonspecific. No focal geographic abnormality identified. Hepatopetal flow in the portal vein noted. The gallbladder is normally distended with no gallstones, gallbladder wall thickening or pericholecystic fluid. Can not exclude a small amount of dependent sludge. The common bile duct measures less than 2 mm in diameter. The right kidney demonstrates normal corticomedullary differentiation. No obstructive uropathy. The right kidney is 10.6 cm in length with normal color flow. Left kidney is 10.5 cm in length with normal corticomedullary differentiation and no evidence of obstruction. The spleen is fairly homogeneous. IMPRESSION: Limited evaluation of the pancreas and proximal aorta due to bowel gas. No obvious free fluid, correlation needed, consider CT with IV contrast if additional assessment warranted. Subtle gallbladder sludge suspected. No acute cholecystitis.
Male | 39
Based on the ultrasound findings, the report mentions some observations, but it also notes limitations due to bowel gas obscuring the pancreas and proximal aorta. No focal abnormalities or gallbladder issues are identified, although a small amount of dependent sludge cannot be completely ruled out. The kidneys and spleen appear normal.Further evaluation and correlation are recommended, such as a CT scan with IV contrast, if needed. No acute cholecystitis or obvious free fluid is noted. Also make sure to consult your doctor for a comprehensive assessment and interpretation of the results.

I'm experiencing stomach ache
Female | 18
It seems you have stomach pain. Reasons for this vary - overeating or rushing meals, gas buildup, or stress can cause it. Sometimes viruses or food poisoning strike. To improve, rest up, hydrate with water, and eat simply - crackers or toast work well. However, if this persists or worsens, promptly consult a gastroenterologist.

What the doctor is saying sounds like there is a problem with passing stool which can be caused if you eat coal. This in turn can cause constipation. Positively, eating more fiber can be of great help in this case. Reject the idea of eating coal and instead drink a lot of water. Eating fiber like fruits and veggies can also help. If the issue persists, go to a gastroenterologist.

This could be acid reflux, also called heartburn. Acid from your stomach travels back up your esophagus, causing those issues. Try avoiding spicy, fatty foods. Eat smaller portions and don't lie down right after. Elevate your head when sleeping, too. Drink plenty of water; follow a balanced diet. If symptoms persist, talk to a gastroenterologist for help. Your health matters!

Female | 20
You have discomfort in the lower abdomen. After sex, you might be dealing with a mild infection or inflammation. It might be the reason for pain and gas problems. Throwing up after meals may also indicate digestive system troubles. If the pain continues, visit a gastroenterologist for further examination.

You may have the condition known as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It can result in bloating, gas, and alterations in bowel habits, such as constipation or diarrhea. Stress and certain foods can be the triggers. For diagnosis, you may be required to consult a gastroenterologist and do some tests like a stool sample or colonoscopy. Treatment can often include dietary changes, stress management, and sometimes medication.

I have recently noticed that my bowel movements have shown a flat side. No bleeding. I have had these hemorrhoids for at least 6 months. Some days they're almost nonexistent. Some days they pop out of the anus and feel annoying, but they hardly ever hurt in any way. It is hard to tell, but there are some days where the stool looks completely normal. No flat side that I can see. I had a colonoscopy (at 39 yrs old) 2+ years ago. A polyp was removed and 3 hemorrhoids were banded. I am very healthy. I am 2 years sober, high protein diet, strength training, active job, don't smoke, and do everything with health in mind. I take sertraline for anxiety and a few supplements. I am scheduled to see my Dr in a month. My anxiety always makes me think it's the worst! Google searches tell me that hemorrhoids won't likely change the stool shape. I am in need of answers please!
Male | 41
This can result from dietary changes or minor intestinal troubles. Hemorrhoids rarely cause flat stools. As a recent colonoscopy was done, serious worries are unlikely. Maintaining healthy habits is wise. It's advisable to inform a doctor about this during the upcoming appointment for accurate guidance.
