Why do I experience food swallowing pain at 30 weeks pregnant?
Why do I feel food is stuck in my throat and feel pain when we swallow food during 30weeks pregnant

Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 9th July '24
When you are pregnant, the feeling of food is caught in the throat and a sense of pain when swallowing it is most likely caused by acid reflux. It occurs when the stomach acid erupts back to the esophagus which could make you feel like food is stuck and also can cause pain. It leads to a sensation of being unable to swallow and a painful state. One method to relieve it is by eating less and avoiding spicy foods as well as standing or sitting for some time after a meal. If the symptoms persist, seek advice from a gastroenterologist.

Sir I have a cut on my anus. Whenever there is a solid motion or if the anus is cleaned with too much force, it starts bleeding. What should I do?
Male | 22
Cuts in the anal area can occur due to various reasons, such as straining during bowel movements or cleansing too vigorously. It's important to keep the area clean and gentle, using mild soap and lukewarm water. Applying a barrier cream, like petroleum jelly, can also help. If bleeding persists or worsens, I recommend consulting a gastroenterologist for a thorough examination and targeted treatment.

If someone swallowed a small rubber band by mistake will it cause any issues
Female | 24
Swallowed a tiny rubber band? No need to worry! It usually passes through your body without any issues, and you might not even notice it. However, if you experience stomach pain, nausea, or difficulty passing stool, seek medical attention immediately, as it could indicate a blockage.

What food is best is ice cream, tea cakes, fibre flakes ok if I have chronic ibs
Male | 42
If you are suffering from chronic IBS, the best diet to go for would be easy foods on your tummy. Ice cream, tea cakes, and fiber flakes may be questionable choices. Ice cream might be the cause of your stomachache, and tea cakes are too sweet. On the other hand, fiber flakes could be a high-fiber one, which can trigger IBS symptoms such as bloating and cramps and therefore be a reason for the worsening of the condition. You should make it a point to eat unseasoned foods like rice, cooked vegetables, and lean proteins to assist in calming your stomach.

I have stomach ache since last night and I am feeling weak and my body is becoming hot i think I have favour and I also have headache which tablet should I take
Male | 18
To relieve your ailments you can take a penny medication that you just get from a pharmacy over-the-counter like paracetamol which will help lower your fever and reduce your headache. Get enough rest, drink plenty of fluids, and feast on some light food like soup and crackers. In case your symptoms still do not improve in the slightest degree or your condition is getting worse then you had better seek medical assistance at once.

I am 18 years old and I have been experiencing off and on vomiting and nausea for the last two years I went to the hospital and I was given amoxillin, esomeprazole, tinidazole, and ondansetron which I took for a week but I feel the symptoms have began and I also feel shortness of breath, back pain and loss of appetite
Female | 18
Nausea, vomiting, and decreased appetite can stem from various causes, including digestive issues or infections. Shortness of breath and back pain are also significant and should not be overlooked. While medications like those you've taken may help, your ongoing symptoms indicate it’s time to follow up with a gastroenterologist for a thorough evaluation. They can determine the underlying causes and suggest appropriate treatments.

Female | 17
Stomach ache, fever, cold nose, as well as fatigue, are some of the symptoms that suggest you may be harboring an infection. Your body might be combating some of the bacteria that have infected you. Resting, consuming fluids, and taking medications that bring down the fever will help you. If the condition persists, then you should consult a gastroenterologist for appropriate treatment.

Hello. My name is Maria Ijaz. I have epigastric pain since 8 years and have tried everything but nothing ever helps. I’ve got all sort of blood work and radiology work and nothing shows any answers. I’m in dire need of help.
Female | 24
Abnormal pain in that area can be caused by different diseases or conditions, such as digestive diseases, tense situations, or discomforts related to the ingestion. As we saw the former tests couldn't reveal any factors, it would be wise to track the consumed food and the associated symptoms to single out the possible triggers. You should consult a gastroenterologist for proper advice.

I am a 46 year old female. 76 kgs. I have some severe acidity gastritis issues. I have been taking Nebicard 5 for the past 3 months for high BP. Still I get some pain in both sides of upper chest some times of the day. It goes away after some time. Any cause for worry about heart diseases?
Female | 46
It's appears to be symptoms of GERD to me, but we need to rule out heart problem first by doing ECG and ECHO and getting a cardiologist opinion. If there's no cardiac element, then gastric evaluation is needed. For cardiologists you can refer this page - Cardiologist in India.

I am 59 year 59-year-old male having symptoms such as acidity, throat burn, abdominal pain, and gas for the past 2 months and now not getting relief from even antacids. I have piles and hernia also!
Male | 59
Acidity, throat burn, stomach ache, and gas are some of the symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or an acid reflux condition. To relieve them, avoid spicy and salty foods, and have your head elevated when you sleep. You should consult a gastroenterologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Hi so I took omeprazole for 1 month because of GERD, now I’m off it and back on Vyvanse but my vyvanse doesn’t work at all after the omeprazole, it doesn’t activate, how come?
Male | 27
Omeprazole decreases the bioavailability of Vyvanse by blocking its uptake.
For the GERD, it is recommended to see a gastroenterologist for its management and psychiatrist in case of prescribing Vyvanse.

My mother 59 who has been recovering from ascites over the past two years, has been experiencing a fever recently. Given her liver's ongoing weakness, I wanted to seek your advice on the next steps. Should we be concerned, and would you recommend any immediate tests or treatment? Thank you for your guidance.
Female | 59
Fever in someone with a history of ascites can indicate an underlying issue that should not be overlooked. It may be a sign of infection or other complications related to liver function. I recommend monitoring her symptoms closely, such as fatigue or abdominal pain and consult a gastroenterologist. They may suggest blood tests, imaging, or other evaluations to determine the cause.

Stomac down side have continued pain many docter see take medicen but same now 3 month
Female | 45
You're suffering from a long-term stomach ache that no medicine is helping. The pain could be attributed to many things such as the ulcer of the stomach or acid reflux. To begin, consume smaller amounts of food, steer clear of spicy foods, and remain upright after meals. If the pain persists, it is essential to consult a gastroenterologist for additional tests and medication.

I am Riya and I am 27 years old and my problem is stomach ache which is happening since last 5-6 days and also gives burning sensation.
Female | 27
The symptoms you're experiencing might be due to gastritis, where the stomach lining gets irritated and inflamed. This may be caused by stress, eating spicy foods, or taking certain medications. You can try drinking chamomile tea or eating plain foods like rice and bananas to help soothe your stomach. But it is also necessary to refrain from alcohol and caffeine until you begin to feel better. Relax and drink enough water. If your symptoms don't improve in a few days, it's best to seek advice from a gastroenterologist.

Since few day I felt gas in my stomach. And today I don't know why but I get frequent urge to poop. In total till now i went for 5 times. The last I went my poop was red in colour and semi-solid(say as jelly).
Male | 21
The sensation of gas in the stomach and the frequent feeling of having to move the bowels are symptoms that can be caused due to several reasons. Defecation of red, jelly-like poop may indicate a bleed in your digestive system. This might be the result of the food you have consumed, the infection you might have, or it is the sign of a disease. It is advisable to consult a gastroenterologist for proper treatment.

Pain in lower left abdomen when sitting but no pain when standing or laying down
Female | 25
You have discomfort in your belly's left lower area. This happens when sitting down. Little pouches in your colon may be inflamed; that's diverticulitis. Other signs: bloating, hard or loose stools. To ease the hurt, eat foods high in fiber and drink lots of water. But, if pain persists, it's wise to consult a gastroenterologist.

I have stomach pain and visit doctor and take medicine but I can't feel better
Female | 23
Different things such as indigestion, gastritis, or infections can cause stomach pains. When you go back to your doctor this time you let the doctor know that what they gave you last time did not work. The doctor might need to run more tests so they can find out what’s happening and give you something that’ll make you feel better.

The flu virus can impact digestion, causing nausea and loose stools. Along with fever and coughing fits. To recover, rest up, stay hydrated, keep foods light. But if symptoms worsen alarmingly, reach out to your doctor promptly. They'll advise next steps for feeling better soon.
