You have signs of being tired, having loose poop, shaking, and sweating at night. Many things can cause these signs like germs or bad food. It is key to drink lots of water and drinks with salt and minerals. Eat soft foods and rest up. If you feel worse or these signs do not go away, go see a gastroenterologist.

It seems like there is a worrying growth in your mid colon area. This growth is making the area swell up and push on your intestines. This can make them get bigger. It can also cause pain, bloating, and changes in how you poop. The best thing to do is to get more tests done. These tests will help figure out what is causing the growth. Then the right treatment can be decided.

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.

Is my stomach ache accurately diagnosed?
Mere pet m dard sari report bhi shi h
Dr. Samrat Jankar
Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
There are various reasons why someone would get a stomachache like consuming too much and too quickly, having gas, or maybe the person might be suffering from a stomach virus. I would advise you to eat smaller portions of food, stay away from spicy foods, and drink as much water as possible. If the pain continues, please consult a gastroenterologist.

Why is blood in stool with hard bowels?
I am 34. I am male. Blood is coming out of the toilet door because my bowels are hard. It has been going on for two or three days. No pain.
Dr. Samrat Jankar
Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
It appears as though you are encountering bowel difficulties. When the poop contains blood, even if there is no pain, it is abnormal. This may occur when the bowels are firm due to insufficient water consumption or fiber intake. You can attempt to soften your stool by drinking a lot of water and consuming more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. If the problem persists, schedule an appointment with a gastroenterologist for a check-up.

Can I kiss after boyfriend had Norovirus 8 days ago?
My boyfriend had, what I suspect to be, Norovirus 8 days ago. He had diarrhea for about 18 to 22 hours, and he only had one bout of vomiting, which he believes was due to the Mountain Dew he drank on an upset stomach. Since its been 8 days since his symptoms have stopped, would it be safe to engage in close contact activities like kissing again?
Dr. Samrat Jankar
Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
Norovirus is a bug. It can make your stomach feel bad. After it goes away, wait a bit before kissing. This makes sure it is all gone. 8 days since his last symptoms are good. But wait longer to be safe. Washing hands well stops the spread.

It seems you have a food problem. You may feel full fast after you eat. Your tummy may expand. You may feel bad in your gut. Eat small meals slowly. Do not eat spicy foods. Do not drink too much coffee or booze. Do not lie down right after you eat. If you still don't feel better, go see a gastroenterologist.

One side headache and Gas trouble problem
Dr. Samrat Jankar
Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
A one-sided headache may be caused by tension or migraines. Gas trouble bloats your belly and makes you uncomfortable. Avoiding gassy foods and drinking water helps. Try relaxing to ease the headache too. Deep breaths or a cool cloth on your head may help.

It seems like your H. pylori infection, past small gut surgery, and high blood pressure may be behind it all. The hurt could mean swelling, ulcers, or other problems down there. Make sure to tell your doctor about the latest hospital trips and how bad the ache is. They might want to run some more tests or change up your meds to help ease the pain.

Could my sister's frequent colds be related to blood in stool?
Hi. It’s regarding my younger sister she’s 4. After Eid, she stopped eating and lost weight a bit. But she’s been eating well again for the last 2 weeks so her appetite is back to normal. She had an ear infection and flu right before she lost her appetite but her appetite loss happened after finishing the antibiotics. However, over the past months she always says ‘my leg hurts’ and she says it’s her ankle. It doesn’t make her cry or anything and it doesn’t stop her playing like a wild animal ???? but today she has blood in her poo and on tissue when wiping it was bright red blood it’s happened before when she was constipated she didn’t drink much water yesterday and my other sister also got the norovirus so it could be that- her poo was watery. She also catches colds frequently
Dr. Samrat Jankar

Answered on 23rd May '24
Seeing blood when she goes poo could mean she's constipated. That can make poo hard to pass. It may also be from norovirus, which causes diarrhea and tummy aches. Her sore leg needs checking too. That pain may relate to her other problems or signal something else. Make sure she drinks lots of water and eats healthy foods to help her tummy feel better. If the leg pain gets worse or won't go away, take her to the doctor.

Why is my poop reddish and painful?
blood while pooping,and the part was reddish...and painfull
Dr. Samrat Jankar
Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
It is important to be concerned upon seeing red blood in stool. Swollen blood vessels in the anus or lower rectum, called hemorrhoids, might be the main cause. Alternatively, anal fissures, inflammatory bowel disease, or an infection could also be responsible. Make sure you drink plenty of fluids, eat food high in fiber, and do not strain when passing stool. To get proper treatment, you must see a gastroenterologist who will carry out the necessary medical checks before giving medication.
