A painful lump in your abdomen may be caused by various factors, including infection, inflammation, or other underlying conditions. It's essential to monitor accompanying symptoms such as fever, nausea, or changes in bowel habits. I recommend seeking medical attention promptly for a thorough examination and diagnosis. A gastroenterologist will help determine the cause and necessary treatment. Your health is important, and addressing this matter quickly can provide peace of mind.

Indigestion problem.gas problem.constipation

Female | 226

Indigestion happens when your stomach has trouble digesting food. You might feel bloated, gassy, or constipated. Overeating or certain foods can cause this. Try eating smaller meals, avoiding spicy foods, and drinking more water. These steps can help digestion and ease discomfort.

Overeating can cause your stomach to feel uncomfortable, which is called indigestion. Some of these symptoms can be caused by eating fatty foods like burgers and fries, as well as drinking alcohol on an empty stomach. To feel better, if you want drink water, eat light foods, and rest.

dr my husband is sick what to do if he have body pein n stomak ishues from 3 day and he tak bed rast

Male | 21

Body aches and stomach trouble­s for three days must be difficult. He­ may have caught a stomach bug. Such illnesses can cause­ body pain and abdominal discomfort. The best approach now is bed re­st, staying hydrated with ample water, and consuming light fare­ like crackers and broth. Following this path should aid his recove­ry soon.

I’m 18 I’ve been having some bowel issues. Around 2 years ago, I had a big IBS flare up (according to my doctor) that lasted for a while. Just recently, after not having much problems since, I’ve been feeling constipated. This occurred after being under some stress from a couple school tests (though, to me, the stress didn’t seem that much different from other stresses I’ve had). I would feel the urge to poop, but very little would come out (even though I felt like there’s a big piece that needed to). When I would push any harder, I could maybe get some more small pieces to come out, though it would burn and be discomforting. This would go on for a while until recently I would have some mild diarrhea. I know this is a bad habit, but I did some reading on the internet and learned that I may be having overflow diarrhea. I still have the feeling of being backed up (that a big piece of poop needs to come out) and nauseous - however not much abdominal pain (yet). I just tried a suppository and unfortunately it led to nothing but some mucus coming out. I’ve been anxious about this, however I’ve started to wonder: Am I getting bowel issues because I’m nervous, or am I nervous because I’m getting bowel issues. I’m here because I’m wondering if all this is an IBS episode, or if this is something more urgent. Both my parents believe it’s nothing but IBS, however, I am a little concerned that it could be something more dire. I’ve been trying to keep my mind off of it, however it is quite hard after knowing a suppository wouldn’t work.

I understand your concerns. The symptoms you're describing could be related to stress-triggered IBS, but it's essential to rule out other potential causes. Persistent changes in bowel habits, especially with discomfort and anxiety, warrant a visit to a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation. They can determine the cause and provide appropriate guidance for management. Don't hesitate to discuss your symptoms openly with your doctor for accurate diagnosis and peace of mind.

I’m 21 I had a beer a Long Island alcoholic drink and a slurpee alcoholic drink and after 12 hours I took exedrin 250mg of acetaminophen will I be okay?

Male | 21

Pairing up acetaminophen and alcohol can have dire consequences, you know. Such a combination might hinder the body's processing of acetaminophen. Eventually, you may end up suffering from liver complications, thanks to alcohol. Puking, headaches, and stomach pains are what you should watch out for if you suspect an overdose.
