Answered on 18th June '24
The cyst can often bring pain and discomfort. They are due to the blocking of the glands or infections. Although cyst removal is generally quite safe, some risks are part of all surgeries. Her physician has to explain the pros and cons to your mom, so that she can make a well-informed decision about what is best for her health.

dysphagia eating with water
Male | Jawed
Swallowing water seems easy, but sometimes it’s not. Dysphagia makes it difficult. You may cough, choke, or feel like food gets stuck. There are different causes, like weak muscles or nerve issues. Sip slowly and sit up straight while eating. If swallowing remains difficult, see a gastroenterologist.

I have bloating with little difficulty in breathing. Two days ago I experienced temporary loss of consciousness.
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.

Hi I have a very silly question. I had a gastroscopy without sedation. Is it safe to have 1 glass of wine with a friend ? The numbing throat spray has worn off.
Female | 46
After a gastroscopy, do not take too much force on your body. The glass of wine can hurt your throat because the numbing spray has already worn off. You might feel some mild discomfort or have a little acidity. It's better to wait one or two days before relishing that wine.

I’m having frequent urination and abdominal cramps
Female | 28
Most people at times deal with bladder troubles. You may feel an urgent need to urinate frequently, along with stomach cramps. Such symptoms often indicate a urinary tract infection (UTI) or bladder irritation. Simple steps can provide relief: drinking ample water, limiting caffeine and spicy fare, and fully emptying your bladder when urinating. However, if discomfort persists, seeking medical advice from a urologist becomes advisable.

How is hep c spread? If I used a stick n poke needle with no blood
Female | 19
Transmission of hepatitis C may involve contact with infected blood and/or sharps such as needles. Even if the needle does not have any water therein, the stick and pokes use can still result in viral infections. It will be good to see a hepatologist or a gastroenterologist if you have reason to think your chances of Hepatitis C are high.

Male | 30
The symptoms you're describing, like heartburn, acid reflux, bloating, and mucus in your stool, could be due to a stomach infection or eating foods that don't agree with your body. Spicy and fatty foods can worsen these symptoms. It's a good idea to eat slowly, avoid foods that trigger your symptoms, and stay hydrated with water. If the symptoms continue, it's important to see a gastroenterologist for further evaluation.

Hi my name is Rachael and I recently cought the stomach flu and I need to know what else to take besides peptobismal
Female | 31
The symptoms are pain in the abdomen, vomiting, and diarrhea. Viruses are the main culprits that lead to this issue, so antibiotics are not suitable. Besides Pepto-Bismol, drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated and rested. Hands-on, dry bread like crackers and rice can also make a difference. If the symptoms get severe or last longer then consult a gastroenterologist.

I have piles . I want to help
Male | 18
Hemorrhoids, also known as piles, are enlarged veins located in the anus or rectum area. These swollen vessels may cause discomfort, irritation, and bleeding when having bowel movements. Excess pressure on the blood vessels results in piles forming. Contributing factors include difficulties passing stools, being overweight, or prolonged sitting periods. Preventing piles involves consuming fiber-rich foods, drinking adequate water regularly, and avoiding straining during bowel movements. Incorporating gentle exercises can also prove beneficial. If piles develop, over-the-counter ointments and creams offer relief temporarily. However, consulting a gastroenterologist regarding any concerning symptoms is advisable.

Male | 34
You're dealing with diarrhea - that's loose, watery bowel movements. Causes range from infections to food intolerances or stress. Your tummy ache is likely cramps from diarrhea. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Eat bland foods like rice and bananas to soothe your stomach. Rest up, and avoid spicy/fatty food. If it persists over a week, see a gastroenterologist.

Male | 30
You are having the impression of wanting to vomit after a meal. This can be a result of the high SGPT and LDL triglycerides content in the body. This is possible to make one uncomfortable. To make this better, your plan should be to consume smaller meals more often, cut down on fatty foods, and drink lots of water. It is also good to do regular exercise to lower these levels.
