Can anorexia cause stomach pain and food aversion?

Patient's Query

im 16 years old and 2 years ago i had anorexia and i made myself vomit like forced myself to do so but it didn’t take long for my body to get used to vomiting and ever since then i couldn’t stop doing that…my stomach hurt a lot if i don’t vomit and i think my body doesn’t accept food anymore

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

Bulimia Nervosa may be the problem you are facing. Frequently vomiting may be the reason behind this. It can result in a stomach ache, throat irritation, and even tooth decay. Your body requires food to maintain good health. A physician can treat you by giving therapy and suggesting a proper diet.

Male | 21

There are a number of conditions which loose stool may be a symptom, such as infections; food intolerance and inflammatory bowel disease. Difficulty in defecation and excessive straining to evacuate the bowels may indicate constipation. A visit to a gastroenterologist is therefore vital for acurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

I was diagnosed with typhoid after which the doctor gave me medicine for 10 days. After 10 days they gave me medicine again which also included Tramin plus. I would like to know why given Dromadin Plus because it is a strong pain reliever. Now there is no pain in my body.

Male | 37

Typhoid is due to a bacillus and can result in fever, body aches, and stomach problems. The medicine that your doctor prescribed acted to eliminate the bacteria that were responsible for the infection. The Tramin Plus contained in your medication is responsible for the relief of any pain or discomfort you may have been experiencing. To ensure that the infection has been completely treated, it is crucial to take your medication exactly as directed.

Hi Sir, kindly help me out to get out of this pain, confusion and frustration. I am Rohan from Pune. 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.And episodes of 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(Leading Gastroentrologist in pune) . That 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) two times in a day along with Amixide h(chlorobenzodioxide +amitryptiline) . Whenever my gut starts paining I took it and pain goes away completely like that problem doesn't exist.I am very confused about this.Stomach pain goes away and comes back. About year ago this problem has started. And just took 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. So I stopped using it completely since year. I want to get completely rid of these medicines and want to live normal life.

Gut issues can be challenging. You've successfully healed ulcers, which is great, but IBS challenges remain. IBS is common and can cause belly pain, bloating, and changes in bowel habits. Often, stress or certain foods trigger it. Medications like Librax and Amixide H, prescribed by your gastroenterologist, can help manage the symptoms. However, lifestyle changes are also important. Stress relief methods, regular exercise, and a fiber-rich, healthy diet can make a significant difference.

My mother under went ultrasound scan of abdomen and Pelvis, Here are the findings Cholelithiasis with Gall Bladder Mass: The presence of multiple gallstones and a mass almost completely filling the gall bladder lumen requires further evaluation with a CECT abdomen. Possible Metastatic Lymph Node: The lesion near the porta hepatis could be a metastatic lymph node, warranting further clinical and lab correlation. Need to know what does that mean

Female | 50

Your mum may have gallstones and a growth in her gallbladder according to the results of the ultrasound. Gallstones can cause pain in the upper abdomen or back, nausea, and vomiting. The mass in the gallbladder needs further investigation so another scan should be done. Also, the possible lymph node near the liver area might need more testing to know what it is. Your mum needs to see her doctor again and talk about what to do next as well as the treatment options for these things.
