Asked for Male | 45 Years

Hi, I have been waking in the early morning (usually between 4 and 5:30) with pain in my shoulders, back, chest or ribs. I am sure it is trapped wind because once I get up and walk around and release the gas by a lot of burping or going to the toilet, the pain goes away. I then try and get back to sleep though can find this difficult. A lot of the time the pain starts again usually 1-2 hours later. Once more, when I sit up it tends to go away, even without burping etc. I do have tenderness around my diaphragm sometimes or sensitivity when pressing to try and move the area. I seem to experience this nightly now regardless of dietary changes. I am a 45 year old male and in generally reasonable health. Thanks for your help. Paul

I m 21 week pregnant. My SGPT AND SGOT is 394 and 327. Already taking liver medicine prescribe by doctor. Why it is happening. Is it normal??

Female | 30

Elevated serum GOT (394) and GPT (327) levels in pregnancy are not widespread. These levers might be indicators of liver damage, which could be caused by some liver conditions or infections like Isaak's disease. Fortunately, you are already taking medication. Stick to your doctor's recommendations. Don't forget to have a healthy lifestyle that includes good food, proper hydration, and sufficient sleep. The monthly checkups can tell whether the problem is under control.

I'm going through the condition of food allergy and intolerance. Want to seek consultation for same. I've got the tests done ok n advice of my gastroenterologist. Now seeking advice from Immunologist/allergist. Plz let me know incase you can help me.

Female | 41

Sure! You might have food allergies or intolerances, which can make certain foods cause problems like stomach aches, rashes, or trouble breathing. These happen because your body mistakenly thinks some foods are harmful. The best thing to do is avoid these trigger foods. An allergist can help you find out which foods to avoid and how to manage your symptoms.

Acid reflux problem gerd

Acid reflux, also known as GERD, is a common condition where the acid from the stomach flows up the esophagus. Symptoms are heartburn, chest, and swallowing. I would refer people with these symptoms to see a gastroenterologist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

Female | 44

Your friend might be having a serious issue like internal bleeding. The bleeding from the bottom, stomach burning, and feeling sick could mean something is wrong inside her tummy. She needs urgent medical help to figure out what's happening and get the right treatment to stop the bleeding.

Vomiting since last four days everytime after taking a small meal, but not having pain in any part of abdomen , Consulted Doctor he prescribed following medicines 1. Sompraz 2. Cintapro 3. Lafaxid 4. Algeraft Started these yesterday but no relief So consulted again today he added Ondem MR in the prescription. Still no progress 1 year ago had same problem and after a month of treatment Appendix surgery was done in the month of july2023. Since then had no problem but started again since last 4-5 days

Male | 13

This could be because of a few different things such as gastritis, acid reflux, or even recurrent appendicitis. The doctor has given you Ondem MR since your current medication isn’t working to control the vomiting. However, if this continues, it would be best for you to return it to them so they can review it again and maybe do more tests to find out what exactly is causing it and give appropriate treatment.

I can't eat because of side effects of previous medicine

Male | 23

Feeling queasy after taking medicine can be tough. Meds sometimes cause side effects like no appetite, nausea, or tummy ache. They can bother your stomach lining. Eat tiny bland meals and pause between bites. Ginger tea may help calm things too. If worried about meds, let your doctor know. They can guide what's best.

Hello, I have been experiencing large amounts of blood in faeces when I use the toilet and some pain for the last two weeks. I think it is linked to drug and alcohol use, as I'm only 23 but have been abusing several pills (sometimes 30 a day, ibuprofen/codeine) and drinking a lot for around 3 years now on and off. I have also developed mouth sores on the corner of my lips for no apparent reason and I think this may be related. Do you know what this could be?

Male | 23

Blood and pain when using the toilet indicate problems inside your body. Those mouth sores reveal that something is wrong with your health. These issues likely stem from drug or alcohol abuse. Your liver, stomach, and even immune system could be damaged. Getting help from a gastroenterologist immediately is vital.

My daughter has belrubin present Her liver test shows SGOT-AST 3110 SGOT-ALT 2950 Is it dangerous?

Female | 4

A significantly elevated value of bilirubin and liver enzymes (SGOTAST and SGOTALT), means that the liver is damaged or there is some liver disease. Quick assessment is required by visiting a gastroenterologist or hepatologist for more detailed evaluation and management preferably with immediate effect.

When I lay down, my nose gets closed, and when I get up it opens slowly but almost instantly (some addition that might be helpful: I have GERD)

Male | 18

When you lie down, your nose feels blocked. When you stand up, it slowly clears. This happens due to GERD, a condition where stomach acid flows back up into the esophagus. The acid can reach your nose and cause congestion. To help, prop up your head while sleeping. Avoid eating close to bedtime. If the problem continues, consult a gastroenterologist for advice.

Stomach Pain, Throat pain

Female | 19

Stomach and throat pain can be caused by various issues, such as infections, acid reflux, or gastrointestinal problems. For relief, you can try over-the-counter antacids or pain relievers and drink warm fluids like tea with honey for your throat. However, it's important to see a gastroenterologist to determine the exact cause and get the right treatment.

Hi there, I'm currently only 19 years old and have previously had occasional heartburn. However, the past 2 weeks I have noticed i have been getting it more frequently. For example last night my heartburn kept waking me up throughout the night. but right now I'm experiencing heartburn and tingling/pins and needles in my hands

Female | 19

You might have acid reflux causing heartburn and tingling hands. Acid reflux happens when stomach acid goes up your food pipe. That causes a burning feeling, called heartburn. Tingling hands could mean irritated nerves. To help, eat smaller meals, avoid spicy foods, don't lie down after eating. See a gastroenterologist if it doesn't get better.

I am a 18 year old female who is experiencing chest tightness since last night. I drank omeprazole earlier but its still here. When I lay on my side the chest tightness will get worse but when I lay in my back the chest tightness will get better. Is it acid reflux?

Female | 18

It sounds like you might be experiencing acid reflux. This happens when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing chest discomfort. Lying on your side can make this worse because it allows the acid to move up more easily. To help with this, try avoiding spicy or acidic foods, eat smaller meals, and stay upright after eating. You can also elevate the head of your bed while sleeping to keep the acid down. If these tips don't improve your symptoms, it's best to see a gastroenterologist for further evaluation.

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've anal pain after and during bowel movement

Male | 20

Many people experience discomfort around their behind when using the restroom. This can result from pushing too forcefully, being constipated, or having a small tear in the skin by the back passage. Fiber helps make bowel movements easier. Drink water regularly and don't strain excessively. If the painful feeling lingers, consult a gastroenterologist to identify any underlying problems.

Hi Sir, kindly help me out to get out confusion and frustration. This is my Clinical summary -Rohan, a 29-year-old male, presented with chief complaints of reflux symptoms and severe abdominal pain persisting for the past 3 months.Sometimes diarrhea.Upon examination, his vital signs were stable. Diagnostic procedures, including gastroscopy and colonoscopy, were performed, leading to the diagnosis of a duodenal ulcer, pan gastritis and pathological findings of lymphocytic colitis. The treatment approach involved the administration of medications, as mentioned in the prescription, to manage the condition. Regular follow-up visits were recommended to monitor the progress and adjust the treatment regimen accordingly. After two and a half months of treatment, significant improvement was noted, with no abdominal pain reported, and the patient's overall well-being has improved. Consequently, the dosage of medications has been reduced. Continued monitoring and adherence to the prescribed treatment plan are necessary to ensure complete resolution of symptoms and prevent recurrence. This was my condition eight months ago. Right now I am very frustrated because of gut problem. It's paining even after following treatment and strict diet for eight months. I almost lost 8 kg. I went for second opinion My doctor told me that your ulcers are healed completely.And lymphocytic colitis was misdiagnosed. Now It's a IBS that causing the pain and not colitis.He prescribed me Librax(Clinidium+chlorobenzodioxide) along with Amixide h(chlorodizapoxide +amitryptiline) . Whenever my gut starts paining I took it and pain fade away.I am very confused about this.Stomach pain goes away and comes back. About year ago this problem has started. And just take those above medicines to cope up with pain One more thing to add here is that I was diagnosed with GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) few years back. I was taking escitalopram( Lexapro 10 mg)on and off prescribed by psychiatrist.But My Gastroenterologist told me to stop using lexapro as it can cause ulcer. Can you guys help me to correctly understand the disease and ways to overcome it.

Male | 29

It seems that this disease has reached you without any diagnostic problem, and it turns out to be IBS.
The doctor associated with the management of your symptoms and provision of relief is putting you on medication which includes Librax (Clinidiumchlorobenzodioxide) and Amixide H (chlorobenzodioxide amitriptyline). This particular type of drug worked effectively in relieving you from the pain just like it had no existence at all.
It is necessary to emphasize that IBS can be long-term and would probably demand long-term therapy. You are advised by your doctor to follow the instructions as they have been given and take all the medications that have been prescribed to you as directed. Close visits with the gastroenterologist are vital to achieving progress and controlling the treatment by your doctor.
If you had GAD in your earlier years, you need to make some lifestyle modifications since it can affect your gut health. On the one hand, Lexapro withdrawal caused intestinal ulcers because your gastroenterologist instructed me to stop using it, but on the other hand, it was necessary to prevent ulcers.

Male | 32

Your watery yellow stools, a potential tummy bug or food reaction, began yesterday. Losing water and nutrients through diarrhea weakens the body. Drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration. If it persists beyond two days or worsens, seek medical advice promptly. A gastroenterologist's assessment ensures appropriate next steps for resolving this digestive issue.
