Why am I having diarrhea post probiotic capsule use?

Upon taking probiotic capsules, a fermenter may result in loose stools while the digestive system adjusts to probiotics. Common symptoms include frequent evacuation or some uneasiness. This is usually the case as the gut refits and it often goes away within several days. For relieving discomfort, it is recommended to cut the dosage and increase your water intake to avoid dehydration. Gradually reintroducing the capsules may help as well. If the symptoms remain the same or get worse after a week, it is prudent to consult a gastroenterologist to rule out issues that may be causing the symptoms.

Which medicine helps heartburn and acid reflux burps?

It seems that you are having a problem with acid reflux and gas. Various factors such as diet, stress, or other diseases can lead to these symptoms. To get some relief, go for over-the-counter drugs like antacids, and proton pump inhibitors if your pharmacist approves them. Furthermore, eating small meals more often and cutting out very spicy or acidic foods may help. Being up and about after finishing your meal can also make things easier. Still, because the mere water is problematic, you should consult a gastroenterologist who gives a correct diagnosis and individualized treatment.

Why do I get severe throat pain after using the washroom?

Your mother appears to be in great distress after the passage of the toilet, which can happen due to the lack of humidity in the air, allergies, or even muscle strain. Make sure she is well-hydrated and the use of a humidifier is the best way to reduce the discomfort in her throat. Some warmth like teas and lozenges can ease pain by calming the throat. Nevertheless, the control of her condition is of prime importance. In the case of the problem's further occurrence, it would be rational to seek help from a gastroenterologist who will carry out a complete examination and give you the necessary guidance on treatment.

Why have I had acidity for 4-5 days at 18?

Acid reflux is a common culprit for experiencing chest or throat discomfort, and it occurs when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus. Common factors that trigger it include spicy foods, fat-laden items, caffeine, and stress. Being cautious to eat smaller portions at a time, staying away from irritants, and not lying down after eating are some possible remedies. Drinking water is another home remedy that might work. If your symptoms are getting out of control or persisting, do not wait and get the advice of a gastroenterologist. You will get the proper diagnosis and a customized plan from the doctor.

Why Am I Going to Toilet Every 5 Seconds?

Feeling like peeing often when it is least expected can be very unpleasant and is a signal of bothersome health effects such as urinary tract infections, excessive intake of liquids, or early disease. In the same light, the appearance of tension can be one of the central points that provoke this sensation. To help solve this issue, you can try to drink less fluid right before you go to bed and record the times you feel the need to urinate. Just be sure to take in enough water during the day, so you will stay hydrated. This situation might also get worse in the event of pain. It would be better to get in touch with a gastroenterologist to be checked out if the condition is still ongoing or if it is associated with discomfort.

Experiencing Right Abdominal Pain for 2 Days?

Two-day-long discomfort on the right belly side may have different sources like digestion problems or tight muscles. One of the symptoms may be feeling tender, bloating, or changing your bowel habits. Using light heat and drinking plenty of fluids can be the two things to try. In addition to this, taking a break from heavy foods could also be the best option. However, whenever you feel too much pain, or fever, or when symptoms are still lingering for too long, it is important to consult a gastroenterologist.

Why do I have stomach pain, fever, and missed period while taking Redotil?

It appears you might be having some worrying symptoms, which could be due to various causes such as an infection, stress, or hormonal changes. Effective treatment could accordingly bring down your pain to a lower level but you must follow up on your treatment. When you drink water and you feed on soft, easily absorbable nutrients, you will not just feel relieved but will also benefit from them. Skipped periods can also show there is a problem in the background. I advise booking an appointment with a gastroenterologist who will do a thorough examination and can address the right personalized options of treatment.
