What should I do for persistent lower abdomen pain?

Patient's Query

I am 66 years old having lower abdomen pain for one month.I have taken norfloxacin 400 mg and pain killer for seven days but not cure.What to do?

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

This type of pain may be felt in this body area due to reasons like the digestive system, bladder, or muscles that are causing the pain. As the medication you had failed, the better thing to do is to visit a gastroenterologist. They may ask you to have other tests like an ultrasound scan to find out the definite cause of your pain.

Hi doctor, um, good evening. I'm coming to you today contacting a clinic with an inquiry. (0:07) So I suffer from very bad anxiety and I recently got a therapist which was only like two months (0:14) ago or so. So within that time frame I've had blood tests done, total blood count and all of (0:21) that and it turns out that I'm not anemic. So within I would say like the past weeks or within (0:27) you know the past year or so occasionally I would get like you know stomach symptoms like diarrhea (0:32) or whatever which my doctor thought was probably IBS and I would get the occasional blood or whatever (0:37) when I strain and stuff like that. So um within the past month I was stressing myself out non-stop (0:45) like I'm constantly stressing but I'm hearing people saying now that I lost a bit of weight (0:50) but my stomach, weight, my legs, my whole body they're the same. I just seem to have lost weight (0:56) within my arms and it's making me freak out because recently today I had a bowel movement and (1:02) I saw the tad little bit of blood again and I've been constantly thinking that I have collateral (1:08) aka colon cancer at the age of 22 and it's really freaking me out and I seem to just cannot (1:15) stop thinking that I have that doctor and it's making my anxiety bad and it's giving me suicidal (1:21) thoughts due to the fact that I think that I have this cancer.

It see­ms you're worried about your he­alth, especially colon cancer. Having that cance­r at 22 is rare. Your arm weight loss could be­ from anxiety causing muscle loss. See­ing a therapist is good, but talking to your doctor about your worries may help re­assure you. Take slow, dee­p breaths and try relaxation methods to e­ase anxiety.

I m having a problem with hemorrhoids but today I felt a dull pain in left area of the anus and it was horrible and i had a left leg numb then after a while it started on the right side and my right leg felt numb to.

One should get medical help as soon as possible. Your symptoms indicate the possible complication of your case due to hemorrhoids, for example blood clot. As for me, I would advise turning to a gastroenterologist or proctologist immediately in order to receive the right diagnosis and treatment.

Having problems during toilet, found pain, acidity always and blood in stool.

Male | 34

Pain and blood in your stool can be a serious thing. Trouble in passing stool plus sourness are also not exempt. For example, hemorrhoids could be the cause although there are other causes like infections or diseases of the intestine such as IBD. Seek medical attention promptly for appropriate care must be taken into account as far as this is concerned.

Hitoday i bought nww pressure cooker i cooked rice in it without washing it after 3 whistle it smell like burnt wire but after this i consumed that rice and now feel little bit pain in my chest n abdomen will it cause sime serious issue like cancer please hlp me

Female | 27

It appears that you have probably inhaled a little poison while making food in the new pressure cooker. It might give the chest and stomach the feeling as though they have some annoying reasons. The pain can also come from the existence of irritation. However, it is unlikely that long-term health risks can be linked to just one exposure. Be sure to cook in a well-ventilated area next, and if you experience pain or find that it worsens, seek medical advice.

I’m from India. I got a question about chilli powder or I guess paprika in the west. Can chilli cause any problem with my stomach or intestine? Can it cause ulcers? Because the whole of internet says it’s good.

Male | 30

Chilies are a healthy ingredient that most people can eat without having problems. Even though, it is also possible for a stomach to become upset, or intestines to be inflamed with chili. Stomach irritations like these can lead to symptoms such as stomach pain, acid indigestion, or indigestion. In rare cases, some people can develop ulcers after eating extremely spicy foods. These sores can appear in the stomach or intestines' lining and cause discomfort and pain. In case of nausea, an antispasmodic should be taken right before bed.

Female | 25

If you're dealing with stomach problems consider dietary adjustments like see if you have any trigger foods, eating smaller meals, and staying hydrated. Manage stress through relaxation techniques, limit alcohol and caffeine if at all you consume, and incorporate probiotics into your diet.

Will dorn therapy helps in curing ibs/ibd disease because am taking dorn treatment till now 12 sessions completed but no improvement.

Male | 24

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.

Hi. I ate leftover food from last night for lunch. It was in the microwave last night and morning time I put it in the refrigerator. It didn't smell bad when I smelled it and it didn't make me sick when I ate it. But I was worried to much if I made a mistake eating it. So I forced myself to throw it out. Please advise ????

Female | 22

Consuming food that has been out of reach for a certain amount of time might result in food intoxication. The symptoms of food poisoning may include aches, discomfort, cramps, nausea, and vomiting. If there is no evidence of these symptoms after you eat the food, it's likely that your body didn’t react.
