Experiencing pain on your left side below the ribs for over six months. Pain increases when standing, yet eases temporarily with applied pressure. Intermittent discomfort could result from spleen or colon issues. Visit a gastroenterologist for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

I am 20 years old. Recently I feel pain in my esophageal area during swallowing time. Also after every minute it start paying from bottom to up an then stop and continue after se ome time
Male | 20
There are symptoms that hard burn is the same as that you might be facing. The reason is that stomach acid goes up into the esophagus and causes pain. Eating spicy or greasy foods, alcohol, or being overweight plays a significant role in developing this heartburn type of problem. For improvement, you can eat smaller meals, avoid trigger foods, and stay sitting upright after eating. If it still hurts, visiting a gastroenterologist for a check-up is necessary.

My query is gluten free meal good for high blood pressure
Male | 44
Meals without gluten may help high blood pressure. High blood pressure often has no symptoms, but it can bring headaches, chest pain, exhaustion. A gluten-free diet with veggies, fruits, lean proteins, and whole grains may lower blood pressure.

I am having a pain in left bach abdomin and also hard stomach seems like filled.. I need medication
Male | 25
It sounds like you’re experiencing pain and stiffness on the left side of your abdomen. These symptoms can be caused by many things, such as gas, constipation, or even muscle strain. To relieve the pain, try drinking lots of water, eating high-fiber foods, and avoiding gassy foods. If the pain doesn’t go away or gets worse, make sure to see a gastroenterologist.

Mai 25 saal ka purush hu ,do din pahle se mujhe external pile hua hai kya mai syptovit e 500 mg tablet use krni chahiye,mujhe bleeding nhi ho rhi hai
पुरुष | 25
You might have external hemorrhoids. Symptoms include itchiness, pain and sometimes bleeding. While Syptovit E 500mg might help with other things, it’s not the best for this. To treat external hemorrhoids you could try taking warm baths, eating foods high in fiber, and keeping your bottom clean so that the signs go away. If they don’t get better or worsen, see a gastroenterologist.

Female | 19
The pain in the lower and upper parts of your stomach, the belly enlargement, and the missed periods could be signs of a serious condition. These symptoms can be the result of different problems like hormonal imbalances, ovarian cysts, or even pregnancy. You should consult a gastroenterologist for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

i drank too much alcohol im fine now though but want to make sure because im worried
Male | 21
After ingesting a large quantity of alcohol, it is fundamental to introspect about your body. Are you feeling better now? That's good! Most of the time, common symptoms of drinking too much include headache, nausea, and feeling tired. Heavy drinking can lead to damage to the liver and brain. For the sake of the body's recovery, water should be maintained high, healthy foods have to be eaten, and some rest should be taken.

I am 33 year old male 6 feet tall guy experiencing watery loose motion from past 3 days no stomach pain no fever only loose motion
Male | 33
This can happen from a stomach bug or something you ate that your body didn't agree with. It's good that your stomach doesn't hurt and you don't have a fever. Be sure to drink lots of liquid so you don't get dried out. Eat plain things like rice, bananas, and toast. If it keeps up for more than a few days or gets worse, then go see a gastroenterologist.

Contacting you for my brother. He has been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis 18 years ago. There seems to be no remission phases though, even though he has tried several things - medication, alternative medicine etc. Could it be something else at hand? Maybe wrong diagnosing to begin with or a combination of things?
Male | 41
I'm sorry to hear that your brother is struggling with ulcerative colitis. Other conditions like infections or complications from long-term inflammation might also be causing his symptoms. He needs to see a gastroenterologist for a thorough check-up to rule out other possibilities. The doctor may suggest additional tests or treatments to help manage his condition better.

The disease is bleeding after stool
Male | 23
Noticing blood after using the bathroom might signal hemorrhoids. These are swollen veins in the rectum or anus, causing bleeding, itchiness, and discomfort. Straining during bowel movements, chronic constipation, or prolonged sitting can trigger hemorrhoids. To ease symptoms, eat more fiber, drink plenty of water, and avoid straining during bowel movements. However, if bleeding persists or worsens, consult a gastroenterologist for further treatment options.

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.

The infection fixed but my intestines are now destroyed. The rectum encounters occasional pain (stabbing like) after using the toilet and the stool is covered in mucus. The stool color is dark red/ brown. No diarrhea. Heart pain that radiates to the left arm, probably under reactive inflammatory context. No tachycardia. Do I have to start 250mg vancomycin hydrochloride PO each 6 hours for 7 days? All the doctors in my city are saying that this antibiotic is only for diarrhea people. What should I do? I'm also nauseous. Took fluconazole 3 weeks then itraconazole 3 weeks in winter, no help, just probably made the situation worse. Today WBC 11.9. Anti-streptolysin, sedimentation rate & reactive C protein are normal. Abdominal tomography displayed inflamed lymph nodes around aorta (reactive inflammatory context). What would you do if you were me? Not currently taking any medication/ having any known condition.
Male | 29
Your symptoms seem worrying. The dark red or brown stool mixed with mucus and rectal pain points to issues in your intestines. Additionally, heart pain and a high white blood cell count raise concerns. Vancomycin usually treats bacterial infections, not these symptoms. It's crucial to consult a gastroenterologist. They can evaluate you properly based on your test results and medical history.

Was having mild stinging in my throat in january and was prescribed rabeloc for one month followed by esomeprazole for another month. After the completion of my dose my throat was fine and I stopped the medication. However I noticed in one week after stopping the medcines I had severe stabbing pains in my chest stomach breast. Could it be because I stopped the ppi or something else.
Female | 25
You were taking medication to alleviate throat discomfort, and now you're experiencing chest and abdominal pain. These pains might be a consequence of abruptly discontinuing the medicine. The medication likely reduced stomach acid levels. Upon cessation, your body may have produced more acid, resulting in the pain you're experiencing. It would be advisable to consult with a gastroenterologist to determine the appropriate course of action.

Male | 18
During the creatine loading phase, bloating and stomach discomfort can occur due to increased water retention. If you're feeling irritation on your right side, consult a professional doctor like a gastroenterologist, as creatine supplementation is generally not associated with side specific irritation.

I am a 21 year old. I am experiencing mild stomach cramping and need like pain. And sharp pain on my lower abdomen especially while urinating
Female | 21
It appears that a UTI might be the problem you’re having. UTIs sometimes lead to cramps in the stomach along with pain in the back or a sudden sharp pain in the lower abdomen when you urinate. These occur because bacteria have entered your urethra. You should drink plenty of water and take antibiotics. To avoid getting more UTIs, make sure to urinate after sex and keep good hygiene.

I am 34 years old. I am suffering from anal itching. I have hemorrhoid but not too severe.
Female | 34
Anal itching is happening due to the hemorrhoids itself. Maintaining good hygiene, using over-the-counter creams or ointments, and avoiding straining during bowel movements can help alleviate symptoms. Still it's always best to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.
