Answered on 13th Feb '25
A noticeable increase in abdominal size can often relate to various factors, such as gas buildup, bloating, or dietary changes. You might also experience discomfort, indigestion, or changes in appetite. Gentle modifications like reducing carbonated drinks, eating slowly, and avoiding high-fiber foods for a short period may help. Staying hydrated is important as well. If these suggestions do not bring improvement, or if you notice any severe symptoms like pain or weight loss, I recommend discussing your concerns with a gastroenterologist for assessment and tailored advice.

My stomach is having gas bubble
Male | 48
Okay you can try a few remedies to find relief. Drink warm liquids like herbal teas or warm water with lemon to relax the stomach muscles. Avoid carbonated drinks and chewing gum as they can contribute to gas production.

47 yasinda erkegim, uzun zamandir ve son zamanlarda siddetlenen karin agrisi (bele vuran) ve agri basladiginda terlemeyle devam eden ataklarin en az 5 saat süren ve morjine bile cevap vermeten nedeni bulunamayan karin agrisi.
Erkek | 47
You are going through intense abdominal pain that moves to the back and is combined with sweating. These symptoms last for at least 5 hours and not responding to painkillers could indicate a serious issue. Possible causes include a condition known as pancreatitis, which is the inflammation of the pancreas. This may result in severe abdominal discomfort, particularly after eating, and thus, a gastroenterologist should be consulted.

I’m wondering what is wrong with me or if I should go to the ER or make an appointment I’ve been having real bad pain on my left lower abdomen hurts when applying pressure to abdomen with stretching sometimes walking and flexing
Female | 26
A condition you seem likely to have is appendicitis. Your appendix is inflamed. The symptoms: stabbing agony in your lower tummy, mostly on the left, getting worse when you apply hand pressure, bend, walk around, or flex your body. If you experience these signs, head straight to the emergency room, immediately. Appendicitis generally needs surgical removal of the appendix to stop dangerous complications from arising.

Bad stomach bloating and intestine pain, medication not working.
Male | 42
The information you've given suggests you're having a case of bloating and pain in the intestines that your medication cannot fix. One of the causes of bloating and intestinal pain may be rushing the eating process, food intolerances, or digestive problems. Small your meals gradually to allow the digestive system to adapt, cut out the foods that bloat you, and drink enough water to relieve your symptoms. If the pain is still present, visiting a gastroenterologist can be necessary to see other reasons that might be the cause.

Stomach pain After eating fish
Male | 43
Experiencing discomfort after consuming seafood can stem from several reasons, including allergies, food intolerance, or even mild foodborne illness. Symptoms might include cramping, nausea, or bloating. To alleviate these feelings, consider drinking clear fluids, resting, and avoiding heavy foods temporarily. Keeping a food diary may help identify specific triggers. However, if pain persists, is severe, or is accompanied by symptoms like fever or vomiting, it’s crucial to seek medical attention. A gastroenterologist can provide a thorough evaluation and tailored advice for your situation.

I am having loose motion and chest pain and sometimes fever is coming also having pain in some joints like my knee, ankle, and elbow. All these symptoms have been coming since 26th May, and pain in joints its happened sometimes for the last 4 years.
Male | 22
Your symptoms indicate infectious diseases such as virus attack; it may be arthritis too. Additionally, the recurrent joint aches you have had over 4 years should not be overlooked without proper medical attention from a professional health care provider. More importantly, one can take fluids and have enough rest but above everything else they should be thoroughly examined by a gastroenterologist for treatment.

I am suffering from Loss of appetite for four month.
Male | 33
If a person is losing their appetite for several months, it can be due to different reasons like stress, underlying health conditions, or changes in lifestyle. The most prominent symptoms may be dissatisfaction of the taste of food or a general disinterest in eating. It is necessary to have a comprehensive examination of your health situation and also, care must be taken at maintaining a proper dietary plan in order to figure out whether you experience certain symptoms after eating specific foods. Drinking water and eating small but healthy meals can do a lot to help. However, I recommend you to visit a gastroenterologist.

Female | 38
Are you experiencing brown bleeding and pain in your belly area? Brown bleeding might be due to the stomach or to some place in the digestive system. The pain in the epigastric region you are having could be due to your stomach. Try eating small, frequent meals and avoid spicy or greasy foods. If the bleeding persists or the pain gets worse, it is recommended that you see a healthcare provider for further advice.

I have messy stoola in once or twice a day mostly in morning since last one or 2 months. There us no pain or cramps but bloating nd gas problem I have. Whats the reason for it...I am 22 yrs old female...
Female | 22
The irritable bowel syndrome, or bloating gas, can stem from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which is a common ailment of the digestive tract. You are by the way at the same age as other people who suffer from this condition. Stress, diet, and allergies to specific foods may all cause IBS. Take the food diary exercise, so you can track what's triggering it. Besides, ensure you take fluids and fiber-rich foods as well. In cases where the problems persist, visiting a gastroenterologist can provide more insight and possible treatment options.

I am having bubbly pee and itching in whole body since a long time. I also have piles
Female | 45
You could be having a urinary tract infection as a result of a bubbly pee effect and an allergic reaction where your body is itching all over. The piles too might be a reason for some pain. Drinking plenty of water to water down the infection then using creams for anti-itch to your skin. To relieve the piles, try including fiber in your diet, and do not cut the effort when you go to the bathroom. If the symptoms are persistent or worsen, you should visit a gastroenterologist.

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.

During intermittent fasting i have diarrhoea what should I eat when i break the fast
Male | 21
Ah, seems diarrhea has interrupted your intermittent fasting schedule. Diarrhea is frequent bowel movements, often caused by fasting's effects on digestion. When ending your fast, opt for gentle foods like bananas, plain rice, or toast. These soothe the stomach. Hydrate extensively with lots of water. If diarrhea persists, seek medical advice.

I have drunk alcohol after it I have vomiting blood but first vomiting it is normal but after it I have put finger and start vomiting so less quantity blood come out
Male | 21
Throwing up blood after drinking alcohol is a major indicator. There might be irritation or bleeding happening in your stomach. Putting your finger down your throat to make yourself puke will make things worse. You need to quit drinking booze right away and see a doctor. Don’t do anything else that will irritate your stomach more, and try to drink some water so you don’t get dehydrated.

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.

I am a student and living in hostel. Due to bad food provided in hostel , I am suffering from constipation and I found blood in my stool in recent days. Then I feels it is symptoms of piles . I started taking Himalaya pilex capsule , but bleeding didn't stop then I used Himalaya pilex forte ointment cream for better results but bleeding didn't stop completely then I used Abhayarist syrup for smoothening of stool and it worked my bleeding problem is solved but still there is constipation. Still at anal part I feel masse and iting. Please suggest me some medicine so that I can remove masse (dana) completely..
Male | 23
Constipation can arise from a lack of fiber and hydration, while the mass and itching may indicate irritation or remnants from previous issues. To improve your situation, focus on increasing fiber intake—fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can help. Staying well-hydrated is also crucial. Over-the-counter stool softeners like docusate sodium may provide additional relief. However, it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist to ensure proper treatment and to evaluate any concerns regarding your symptoms.

Having watery stools from yesterday..no pain...not much of a weakness..only after watery stool that happened yesterday,felt weak..but not now..but watery yellow stool continuing...
Male | 32
Your watery yellow stools, a potential tummy bug or food reaction, began yesterday. Losing water and nutrients through diarrhea weakens the body. Drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration. If it persists beyond two days or worsens, seek medical advice promptly. A gastroenterologist's assessment ensures appropriate next steps for resolving this digestive issue.

I was having a leg pain and my sister gave me a drug that was made of diclofenac-misoprostol. After taking the drug I had intense lower abdominal pain and bled. I’m a virgin and I’m afraid that affected my hymen.
Female | 22
Combinational drug diclofenac-misoprostol is widely used to alleviate pain symptoms. But it may cause some severe side effects including abdominal pain and bleeding, especially in patients with ulcer history. If any of these symptoms occur, you should visit a gastroenterologist immediately. It is highly advised that you do not take any medications unless a doctor has prescribed such.

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.
