What's the difference between UC and SRUS?
UC and SRUS have some things that are the same, but they are a bit different. UC impacts your big intestine, making it red and sore. You may get loose poop, belly pain, and blood in your poop. SRUS often causes bleeding from your rear end, gooey discharge, and trouble controlling your poop. Meds that reduce redness help with UC, while SRUS may need food with lots of fiber and poop softeners.

What should I do for excessive gas and pain in stomach?
A lot of gas in the belly can make you feel bad. Gas can cause pain, bloating, and burping. Eating too fast, chewing gum, or fizzy drinks can lead to gas. Try eating slowly, no fizzy drinks, and walk after meals to ease gas. If the pain does not stop, it is best to ask a gastroenterologist.

24-year-old male with persistent diarrhea: What should I do?
Loose poop is when you go to the bathroom a lot and it is watery. It can happen from bugs, bad food, or worry. Drink lots of water so you don't get dry. Eat simple foods like plain rice, bread, and bananas. If it keeps happening, talk to a gastroenterologist.

Why Do I Experience Lower Right Quadrant Pain?
You may be having a urinary tract infection (UTI) or kidney infection. These make you pee often but little pee comes out. They also cause pain in your lower right belly, dizziness, weakness, and low back pain. It is very important to drink lots of water and see a urologist.

Do I have a 47mm colon lesion with lymph nodes?
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.

Will mixing acetaminophen with alcohol be harmful?
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?
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?
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?
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.

Why do I have one-sided headache and gas?
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.
