Gastroenterology

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

As you've been dealing with stomach cramps and that burning sensation for a whole week now. There are a few things that could be causing these symptoms. It could be something like gastritis, which is inflammation in the stomach lining, or even acid reflux, where stomach acid flows back into the food pipe. In fact, stress and certain foods can also trigger these issues. To help ease your discomfort, try avoiding spicy and acidic foods, eat smaller meals, and stay hydrated. If the symptoms persist, it's best to see a gastroenterologist for a proper evaluation and guidance on next steps.

Hi my girlfriend is having periods since the day before yesterday today morning she felt pain in her stomach particularly on the left side also accompanied by swelling we are suspecting it to be stomach infection but aren't sure about it yet

Female | 20

Your girlfriend might be experiencing acute appendicitis. Symptoms of this are sudden stomach pain on the lower right side with swelling. Appendicitis is when the appendix gets inflamed. If you think this is the case, you need to go to the hospital straight away because surgery is usually the only way to get rid of the inflamed appendix and avoid complications.

Female | 17

This can be a life threatening issue. If you have accidentally ingested a coin even if there are no symptoms, it is recommended to a doctor. The location and position of the coin can be detected by conducting an X-ray. Therefore, a visit to the gastroenterologist is recommended for further evaluation and treatment.

Fertility treatments tablet used but last one week gas problem diarrhea stomach discomfort and feeling sick

Female | 27

Diarrhea, stomach discomfort, and feeling sick after taking fertility treatment tablets can sometimes occur as side effects of fertility medications. These tablets can sometimes irritate the stomach or cause gastrointestinal upset. In fact, it's essential to stay hydrated and maintain a bland diet. I recommend contacting your gynecologist to discuss these side effects. They may suggest adjusting your medication, taking probiotics, or trying other ways to manage these symptoms effectively.

Im girl 21 year old I got blood in stool 3 months ago it happened twice now it won’t happen what was reason

Female | 21

Having experienced blood in your stool, even sporadically, can prompt concern. Various factors could contribute to this, including hemorrhoids, dietary issues, or gastrointestinal conditions. While it's reassuring that it hasn't recurred, it's still important to prioritize your health. I strongly recommend scheduling a visit with a gastroenterologist to discuss your history and possibly undergo an examination. This will help identify any underlying issues and provide peace of mind.

I am aged 22 ..l have been having stomach pains and cramps with a yellow discharge..after days after l took benzathine for my tensils .what might be the cause ?and what should l take to stop the problem?

Female | 22

These could be symptoms of a bacterial infection in your stomach. Sometimes, the use of antibiotics such as benzathine can deplete the good bacteria in the stomach, which may result in those symptoms. To eliminate the problem, you should consider ingesting only plain, easily digestible foods such as rice and toast. In addition, make sure you drink enough water to keep yourself hydrated. If the symptoms don't go away, it's a good idea to visit a gastroenterologist for more tests and treatment.

Ive woken up with pain in the rib area in the upper abdomen and i think in lower back i got up and took a walk and the pain went away. 5 hours later i had black stool. I need to go to work in 3 hours should i call it of and seek immidiate checkup

Male | 24

Your pains and black stools sound concerning. Upper abdomen and back discomfort can signal gastritis or kidney issues. Black stools indicate internal bleeding, maybe stomach or intestines. You should see a gastroenterologist immediately, as this requires medical attention. For now, rest up, and don't strain yourself with heavy lifting.

Male | 60

It sounds like you are experiencing gastrointestinal distress, which can occasionally occur after taking medications. Symptoms like diarrhea, headaches, nausea, and weakness might indicate a mild reaction or an infection. Staying hydrated is crucial, so drink plenty of fluids. Resting will help your body recover, but if your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult gastroenterologist. He can provide a thorough evaluation to ensure there are no underlying issues.

The problem I’m having is that I had high blood pressure some weeks again and I took drug it goes back to normal some days after I noticed that I’m my stern notch is pulsing whenever I place my finger on it it kinda heavy and also I’m having diarrhea after eating chest pain and sometimes as if something is in my throat and I’m always weak and feel bloated And I did an X-ray on my chest everything is normal

Female | 24

Acid reflux might cause your chest pain. A lump-in-throat sensation, bloating, and diarrhea after meals are signs. Stomach acid flows back up the food pipe. Smaller meals and avoiding spicy or greasy foods help. Don't lie down after eating. Drink lots of water too. This condition is when stomach acid flows up. Visit a gastroenterologist if the problem continues.

Hi iam 23years old girl suffering from belches all the time whether I eat or not no matter what I do all the time iam getting belches.

Female | 23

Burping, or belching, can happen when you swallow too much air. This may occur if you eat too quickly, chew gum, or drink fizzy beverages. Sometimes, belching results from acid reflux - stomach acid rising into your throat. To reduce belching, try these tips: Eat slowly. Avoid carbonated drinks. Don't talk while eating. If belching persists, consult a gastroenterologist to identify potential underlying causes.

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.

If you're suffering from mild gastritis and prescribed medication for four weeks, it's important to follow a bland diet. Avoid spicy, oily foods, and opt for easily digestible meals like khichdi, yogurt, and boiled vegetables. Consult a gastroenterologist for personalized dietary advice and monitor your symptoms closely during this period.

Hi, I’ve been experiencing symptoms such as blood in my stool blood when I wipe pain in my bottom and stomach cramps and I don’t know what it could be I’ve been checked and it’s not piles or anal fishers or anything to do with stomach and intestines.

Female | 19

It’s understandable to feel concerned with your symptoms. Blood during bowel movements, discomfort in the anal area, and abdominal cramps could stem from various sources, including infections, inflammatory conditions, or vascular issues. Since you’ve been evaluated for piles and fissures, it would be wise to consult your gastroenterologist for further assessment. They may recommend additional tests to identify the underlying cause and suggest appropriate treatments. Staying hydrated and maintaining a balanced diet can also support your digestive health.

I have stomach pain after a two day water fast it comes and goes. It can start up if I lay down on my left side.

Male | 26

Gastritis, an irritation of the stomach lining, seems likely. Fasting may have contributed to this issue. The pain is usually a dull ache that comes and goes. Lying on your left side might worsen it because of your stomach's position. To manage this, try eating small, frequent meals for a while. Avoid spicy or acidic foods for a few days. If the pain continues, consult a gastroenterologist.

Male | 23

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease can progress to fibrosis, which is the scaring of the liver. Healthy weight loss through diet and exercise can play a key role in the liver's health. The liver is capable of some self-repair, but the damage from serious scarring is probably not going to be reversed completely. Following your doctor's advice, taking your medication, and lifestyle changes to support your liver health are essential.

Ibd and Ibs are complex conditions that involve inflammation and dysfunction of the gastrointestinal system. They require medical management and treatment approaches that are specific to these conditions. Treatment for IBD and IBS needs a combination of medication, dietary modifications, lifestyle changes, and sometimes psychological support.
While alternative therapies and complementary approaches may have their benefits it's crucial to rely on evidence based treatments for conditions as complex as Ibd and Ibs.

Female | 28

Thrombosed piles, especially at an advanced stage, can cause significant discomfort, including pain, swelling, and bleeding. While lifestyle changes such as a high-fiber diet, increased fluid intake, and regular exercise may alleviate mild symptoms, they might not fully resolve advanced cases. Over-the-counter treatments can offer temporary relief, but it’s essential to approach this condition under a doctor’s guidance. A gastroenterologist can assess your situation thoroughly and discuss the most effective options, which may include non-surgical interventions.
