Gastroenterology

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

Menstrual difficulties can sometimes relate to digestive issues like stomach ulcers. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, bloating, or changes in your cycle. Stress, certain medications, and diet can contribute to both conditions. To manage discomfort, consider maintaining a balanced diet low in spicy or acidic foods, staying hydrated, and practicing relaxation techniques. It's vital to monitor your symptoms closely. For persistent concerns, please consult a gastroenterologist. They can provide a thorough assessment and suggest appropriate treatments tailored to your needs.

I ate 6 Napthelene balls and now having abdominal pain , pain while urination and weird nauseous feelings. What should I do?

Female | 16

Consuming Napthelene balls is extremely risky. Experiencing stomach pains, discomfort during urination, and nauseous sensations are alarming signs. Napthelene is poisonous and can severely damage your body. Seeking immediate medical attention is crucial. Call emergency services or visit the nearest hospital without delay. Do not hesitate, as prompt treatment is essential in such situations.

I understand how distressing abdominal pain can be, especially when it impacts your daily life like eating and sleeping. While imaging tests are reassuring, there could be various causes such as digestive issues, muscle strain, or food intolerances. Consulting a gastroenterologist is a wise decision, as they specialize in this area and can provide targeted evaluation and management. In the meantime, focus on staying hydrated and try gentle modifications to your diet.

I got diagnosed with the flu last night and today I’ve been having nausea and diarrhea. Is this normal or should I go back to the doctor?

Female | 19

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.

I'm a 24-year-old guy and have been suffering from stomach issues for several years. To begin with, I should mention that before 2-3 years ago, I never had any problems of this kind. I remember vomiting only once or twice when I was a child. However, 2-3 years ago, after a bout of oyster poisoning, I started experiencing episodes of dyspepsia at least once a month, despite maintaining a generally healthy and balanced diet. Following the incident 2-3 years ago, I visited multiple gastroenterologists who examined me but never wanted to go beyond an ultrasound, which they always said looked fine. They concluded that the problem is functional. After discovering my lactose intolerance, I learned to avoid lactose, but unfortunately, I still feel unwell 1-2 times a week. It starts with a bit of diarrhea and then nausea, which I try to alleviate with Biochetasi and other products like baking soda and lemon, but I still go through tough hours. Tonight's episode was particularly severe, and I don't know how to resolve this!!

Male | 24

This happens when you get stressed, eat certain things (or have been infected by something). Keep an eye on what you’ve been eating about when these symptoms show up by writing them down in a food diary. Also, talk to a gastroenterologist about what else they could do to treat it or if there are any other dietary changes you should make that might help relieve some discomforts associated with this condition.

I m suffering from fissure in anus

Male | 40

You may have a fissure in your anus which could hurt a lot and make you uncomfortable. A fissure is like a tiny cut on the skin around your bottom. It is caused by passing hard stool, running stomach, or diseases like Crohn`s disease. Symptoms may include pain when passing stool and sometimes even bleeding. To alleviate these symptoms, try taking more fiber in your diet, drinking enough water daily, and applying creams to soothe the affected area.

My name is Sylvia I started experiencing sharp pain on the lower left side of my stomach which radiated to the hip it eased abit after taking some painkillers but I'm also getting nausea could you please advice

Female | 25

It sounds as if you've developed some lower left abdominal pain with a prospect of the pain spreading to your hip. Painkillers are lessening the pain to a small extent, however, you're feeling nauseated too. These symptoms can be the signs of an issue in your digestive system like gas, constipation, or even a stomach virus. It's necessary to drink water, eat light foods, and sleep. If there is no improvement, the best thing to do is have a wellness check-up with a gastroenterologist who can properly diagnose and treat you.

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 37 years of age. I wanted to ask, i usually experience motion sickness when i travel. So i do take meds to ease up the nausea. Last week i went to get my normal meds over the counter coz am to travel next week. The pharmasist adviced me i take dulcolax 5mg a day or 2 before i travel to clean out my bowels as he said it will reduce the nausea. Please advice coz i dont want to take the medicine and it ends up interfering with my trip. I also have a case of haemorrhoids so

Female | 37

Motion sickness can be defined as nausea and dizziness when one travels. The phenomenon can be caused by the confusion in the brain between the signals sent. Motion sickness meds are usually taken. However, Dulcolax is a laxative intended to be used for constipation treatment, not motion sickness. It may result in cramping and diarrhea. It is crucial to refrain from any other drugs and consult a gastroenterologist.

Your symptoms like chest discomfort, gas, acid reflux, constipation, and post-meal vomiting indicate stomach issues. Reduce portion sizes. Avoid spicy, greasy food. Stay hydrated.

I have Lymph node in stomach. What it is?

Female | 30

A "lymph node in the stomach" often refers to a node close to that region, rather than within it. These small, bean-like structures aid our immunity. Swelling may stem from infections or other issues. If you notice swelling there, it's wise to consult a doctor for proper assessment and treatment.

Having loose motions from some days.

Female | 20

Experiencing loose motions for a few days can be challenging. It means you're going to the bathroom more often, and your stool is watery. This can happen due to infections from germs in food or water. To stay safe, drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration. Eating plain foods like rice can help calm your stomach. If the condition persists, it's best to consult a gastroenterologist for advice.

You might have some issues with your stomach and you should listen to your body carefully. Pain, bloating, nausea, or diarrhea might be signs of stomach problems. These can occur when a person eats too fast, is stressed out, or eats certain foods. To feel better, try eating slowly, avoiding spicy or greasy food, and drinking plenty of water. If they persist, consult a gastroenterologist.

I recently had typhoid & some bacteria infection and was given some medication but after the medication I still feel a little unwell (not so intense) I feel a little het from within

Male | 29

Even after taking the medication, if you're still feeling a bit unwell and experiencing internal heat, it might mean there are still some lingering issues. The problem of bacteria being incompletely cleared out which leads to persistent symptoms is one of the possible explanations. Hydration, taking adequate rest, and going for further observations and treatment are the most important tips to be followed with a gastroenterologist to stay healthy.

I vomit more than 16 times n now I'm having lower back pain since 2 weeks what should I do?

Female | 23

Frequent vomiting and persistent lower back discomfort can indicate underlying issues that require attention. Dehydration or an electrolyte imbalance might result from excessive vomiting, while back pain could stem from muscle strain or other causes. It's essential to maintain hydration by sipping clear fluids and consider light, nutritious foods. However, given the severity and duration of your symptoms, I strongly recommend consulting a gastroenterologist. A thorough evaluation can help identify the root cause and guide you toward appropriate treatment.

I am a 21 year old male around 5'4 with around 60kgs weight. I feel as if this weight is too little and I want to add more. I try on numerous occasions to eat more and diet better albeit I do a bit of drinking over the weekends. Though I have tried adding weight, only my stomach seems to get larger whilst my other body parts are not commensurate to this gain. Yesterday I went out and took a drink that has 40% alcohol. Since then my stomach hasn't stopped growling no matter how much I eat, and I have watery diarrhea. What is the problem?

Male | 21

It sounds like your recent experiences with alcohol have led to digestive issues, such as a growling stomach and diarrhea. Alcohol can irritate your digestive system and disrupt your body's ability to absorb nutrients, which may explain your difficulty gaining weight. To support your health, consider reducing alcohol intake and focusing on balanced meals that include protein, healthy fats, and whole grains. Staying hydrated is also essential. If symptoms persist or worsen, please seek guidance from a gastroenterologist to ensure there are no underlying concerns. Your well-being is paramount, and a doctor can provide tailored advice and support.

It may signal bleeding in the stomach or intestines. The change in color could be caused by something you ate or a more serious problem. If you also have symptoms such as stomach pain, fatigue, or weight loss, you should see a gastroenterologist as soon as possible. Treatment will depend on the underlying cause, which can only be determined by the doctor.
