How can I diagnose foreign object in small bowel?
Suppose there is a foreign body like a small fish bone or chicken bone which got stuck in small bowel or has perforated small bowel and entered peritoneal cavity. As we know upper endoscopy and colonoscopy cant reach small bowel then how do we diagnose such small object and which imaging would be the best for diagnosis?

Answered on 10th Oct '24
In case you accidentally swallow a fish bone or a chicken bone and it gets stuck in your small bowel or pokes a hole, it can cause serious problems. These conditions can be the cause of symptoms like strong abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and fever. To diagnose this, a CT scan of the abdomen is the best imaging test. It is capable of revealing if there's a foreign object or a hole in the bowel. When this occurs, surgery may be necessary to remove the object and fix the bowel. Don't wait if you have these symptoms, visit a gastroenterologist.

The pain you are feeling in your abdomen could be the result of an ulcer, which is a sore in your stomach. The lightheadedness and balance issues could be connected to your Hepatitis B and fatty liver. These illnesses can give you a sick feeling and make you feel off-balance. make sure that you visit a gastroenterologist.

I am 18 year old female. Every morning while pooping I get a normal (not solid) bowel followed by loose stools like diarrhea , every morning after waking up I feel a huge urge to poop and then within 10 minutes a lot of poop comes out of my body and its normal one (although it is not solids) it seems like i am done but then very loose stool starts coming in very small amounts for which I have to strain and I end up with 50 minutes in toilet but that loose stool never gets out completely , its been more than an year now.

You have a problem with a condition called irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The sure signs of IBS are the combination of constipation and diarrhea, in addition to often urgent bowel movements. It may be instigated by stress, some foods, or hormonal changes. For IBS to be controlled, it is important to eat a balanced diet, to drink enough water, to control stress, and to use medications if necessary.

online Doctor Dashboard / My Health Queries / Query Thread Query Thread Answered Your Query8 hours ago Consulted for: Mr.HARSHA K N (Myself) , Age: 22, Gender: Male Hello, I am Harsha K N In december 14th 2023, I got admitted for frequent bowel movements with mucus for whole night. I got colonoscopy done on 15th dec in which they indicated it as "Ulcerative Proctosigmoiditis" and they had suggested mesacol OD and SR fil enema . In the 3rd follow up on 21st march 2024, they did a sigmoidoscopy and there it was said as "ulcers in rectosigmoid are 75% healed and in rectum it has healed completely, and also in the indication they have mentioned as "healing SRUS". So i got a bit confused about my condtion that it is' ulcerative colitis' or 'SRUS'. And also it would be helpful if got an explanation of difference between UC and SRUS because i could not be able to find out.
Male | 22
UC and SRUS have some things that are the same, but they are a bit different. UC impacts your big intestine, making it red and sore. You may get loose poop, belly pain, and blood in your poop. SRUS often causes bleeding from your rear end, gooey discharge, and trouble controlling your poop. Meds that reduce redness help with UC, while SRUS may need food with lots of fiber and poop softeners.

I'm experiencing pain in lower right side of abdomen from 2-3 weeks. Today I was feeling nausea with pain for few minutes in a particular fixed pain area where pain everytime occurs.
Male | 25
You're feeling sick. That pain in your belly may be appendicitis. Your appendix, a small sac, could be inflamed. Nausea, steady pain - those are warning signs. You need to see a gastroenterologist soon. Leaving appendicitis untreated is risky. If it's appendicitis, you'll likely need surgery. They'll remove your appendix to prevent complications.

Male | 47
Chewing tobacco can be the reason for not digesting food properly. The chemicals in it can damage the stomach lining, thus facilitating indigestion. The solution is to stop chewing tobacco and watch if things change for the better. And if the condition persists, consult a gastroenterologist.

I had to reduce bilurubin levels from 1.4 to 0.5 how to reduce
Male | 23
It is first critical to establish the underlying cause of excessive bilirubin in the body to lower bilirubin levels. In certain instances, water intake increase or alcohol and fatty food avoidance would be a good choice. Yet, in a lot of instances, medicated intervention becomes inevitable. I would suggest seeing a gastroenterologist for a comprehensive diagnosis and personalized treatment options.

Female | 31
Problems with the gallbladder can be difficult. If they’re left untreated, there is a slight chance that it may burst which could be very serious. When this happens you’ll have piercing pain all over your stomach area, fever and feel weak all the time. Dealing with the infection before anything else is vital.

Hi. I ate leftover food from last night for lunch. It was in the microwave last night and morning time I put it in the refrigerator. It didn't smell bad when I smelled it and it didn't make me sick when I ate it. But I was worried to much if I made a mistake eating it. So I forced myself to throw it out. Please advise ????
Female | 22
Consuming food that has been out of reach for a certain amount of time might result in food intoxication. The symptoms of food poisoning may include aches, discomfort, cramps, nausea, and vomiting. If there is no evidence of these symptoms after you eat the food, it's likely that your body didn’t react.

I am 33 years old. I have constipation, loss of apoetite and sleeplessness.
Male | 33
Bowel disorders like constipation, lower appetite, and sleep disturbances come to your attention, and it is very natural for you to feel worried. Environmental stress, dietary changes, or any other underlying health issues could result in these ailments. One of the measures to overcome chronic constipation is the use of high fiber foods in your regular diet, drinking enough water, and being active in exercise. Where the issue of healthy appetite is concerned and better sleep is considered, the setting up of a regular daily program in combination with the practice of some kind of relaxation techniques to cope with stress can be the key. Still, if these manifestations are prolonged, I would advise you on making an appointment with a specialist who will carry out a full analysis and give you personal suggestions. Your health is crucial, and obtaining constant help from a physician may be the right way.

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.

Female | 51
Having diarrhea or soft poop could be due to many things such as infections or food sensitivities while difficulty passing stool could mean constipation. You need to eat more fiber, drink plenty of water, and also go for a medical check-up to know exactly what is wrong with you.

I am 33 year old have been having lower abdominal pain at my right side the pains go and come please what can be the problem
Female | 33
The problem might point to appendicitis, the inflammation of the appendix. At times, pain takes place quietly, but if it is worse, don't overlook it. The signs of appendicitis might involve the patient having high fever, nausea, and loss of appetite. Don't hesitate to go to the emergency department as soon as the suspicion of appendicitis arises. Surgery could become a necessity in the process of getting your appendix to remove it and thus keep it from rupturing.

I am 34 years old My pancreas has been damaged
Male | 34
When the pancreas is injured, it can cause all sorts of problems. You may have terrible tummy aches, throw up a lot, and lose weight without trying to. A damaged pancreas could be the result of gallstones, or too much alcohol, or it might just run in your family. Eating well and staying away from booze is important. A gastroenterologist could prescribe some pills that would help you out and they might also recommend that you go on a special diet to make your pancreas feel better.

I hv constant gases whole day and pain in my left side in stomach. M scared to visit doctors i hope i don't hv to do surgery or any painful process. What should I do.
Female | 26
You seem to have persistent tummy troubles. Frequent gas and aches on your left side could point to digestive problems. Your past amebiasis might be contributing too. Understandably, you want to avoid surgery. To feel better, try eating smaller portions, steering clear of spicy cuisine, and drinking plenty of fluids. But it's also wise to speak with a gastroenterologist about other potential remedies.

Can I eat onions and black pepper in h pylori
Male | 38
If you possess the H. pylori infection, some signs can be stomach aches, bloating, nausea etc. These symptoms are likely to get worse if you take onions or black pepper since they may irritate the lining of your stomach. It would therefore be advisable for one to temporarily keep off such foods until they undergo treatment for this condition. In order to reduce distress while being treated for H. pylori, it is recommended that you take a mild diet comprising foods that do not cause any harm to your stomach.
