When you consume spicy foods, your tongue may feel like it's burning and inflamed as a result. Besides the tongue the nose gets along with tears releasing at the eyes. It is because spicy food provokes your whole body to make more mucus in your nose and eyes if you eat it. However, don't worry; you may be relieved this way by eating fewer hot foods or by mixing chilled milk or yogurt with spicy food to decrease hotness.

Why is my stomach side paining
Female | 22
Sometimes, stomach pains strike on one side. Gas or overeating may cause this discomfort. It also could be because of a strained muscle. However, more serious issues like ulcers or organ inflammation could also trigger such pain. If severe or persistent pain, medical consultation from a gastroenterologist is necessary. Meanwhile, stay hydrated. Rest up. Eat gentle and consume healthy food.

Assessment: - Severe constipation possibly exacerbated by severe anemia and pregnancy-related hormonal changes. - Lower left abdominal pain likely due to stool buildup in the colon.
Female | 26
Pregnancy can cause hormonal changes that may contribute to severe constipation, especially when combined with anemia. The feelings of fullness and lower abdominal discomfort indicate the need for further evaluation. While you’ve tried several methods, it’s crucial to consult your gynecologist for tailored treatment options. They may suggest changes in medication or additional tests to rule out other issues. In the meantime, gentle movements, warm baths, and a balanced diet can help alleviate some discomfort.

I recently had my gallbladder removed and have been experiencing digestive issues. What kind of diet should I follow to manage these symptoms?
Male | 37
Even after gallbladder surgery, diarrhea, bloating, or gas is a common problem. This happens because the gallbladder is one of the key players in the digestion of fats and without it, the body struggles with the digestion of fatty foods. Eating a low-fat diet is one way to lessen these symptoms. Try consuming more fruits, vegetables, lean meats, and whole grains. Avoid greasy, fried, and spicy foods as they can cause discomfort. Eating small, frequent meals throughout the day can also help. Your body might need some time to get used to the new condition, so have patience and monitor how it reacts to different foods.

I suffered from jaundice from last year mid July. I am diagnosed with intrahepatic cholestasis . But doctors couldn't confirm cause of jaundice. But they treated me with UDCA tablet . I'm cured as per LFT and other tests result. Its been 20 days. I had severe itching all over my body that time . But now its completely gone . My birthday is coming in a week. I would love to eat nonveg especially chicken... could you please suggest whether i can EAT chicken or not ?.
Female | 25
Since your liver function tests have normalized, it's likely safe to enjoy chicken and other non-veg foods. These can be a good source of protein. However, make sure to avoid overly fatty or spicy preparations that might be harder on your digestive system. For peace of mind, it's a good idea to check with your gastroenterologist before making any significant dietary changes.

Female | 39
Stomach troubles seem to be bothering you. A burning sensation indicates stomach acid straying where it shouldn't. Spicy foods or stress can cause this. Drinking water sometimes soothes the issue. Eating smaller meals and avoiding spicy foods may provide relief. However, if the burning persists or becomes painful, consulting a gastroenterologist is advisable.

Male | 29
Body signals should be cared for. The stress in your body is shown by your spinal pain, difficulty breathing, upset stomach, and gallstones when you are doing masturbation. However, it's important to stress that your body is the one you should notice and not these signs that are sometimes ignored. The next step can be to approach a gastroenterologist to discuss these symptoms in more detail.

Will dorn therapy helps in curing ibs/ibd disease because am taking dorn treatment till now 12 sessions completed but no improvement.
Male | 24
Ibd and Ibs are complex conditions that involve inflammation and dysfunction of the gastrointestinal system. They require medical management and treatment approaches that are specific to these conditions. Treatment for IBD and IBS needs a combination of medication, dietary modifications, lifestyle changes, and sometimes psychological support.
While alternative therapies and complementary approaches may have their benefits it's crucial to rely on evidence based treatments for conditions as complex as Ibd and Ibs.

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.

Stomach and chest size increased after bathing and eating too much heavy food.I noticed when I bathing my chest size increases even exercises increases chest size. But when I don't put water on chest my and I do exercises my chest decrease and look into good shape bathing is opposite.
Male | 23
Bloating in your tummy and chest area might be happening due to eating lots of heavy food can cause. Your chest and stomach may seem bigger from bloating. The water from bathing could also make your chest look different for a bit. Eat smaller meals, stay away from heavy foods, and drink enough water. Doing some light exercises can also help reduce bloating.

My advice would be to see a registered dietician, who could develop an individualized nutrition plan based on your needs and high blood sugar levels. Moreover, you should adhere to the doctor's directions about insulin dosage and timing as well as accurately measure your blood sugar level. In case of any doubts concerning your gall bladder surgery, consult a gastroenterologist

IBS patients often experience a sour stomach, leading to symptoms like bloating, cramps, and changes in bowel habits. Certain foods can worsen these symptoms, such as dairy, spicy foods, caffeine, and artificial sweeteners. Eating small meals, drinking enough water, and avoiding trigger foods can help.

Your body is trying to get rid of something bothering it, like a virus, bacteria, or food that didn't agree with you. To help, drink lots of liquids so you don't get dehydrated. Stick to bland stuff like toast or rice. If it doesn't improve after a couple of days, check with a gastroenterologist.
