Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

Infections or certain medical conditions are the possible causes of diarrhea. When you are already taking rifaximin and still not feeling better, it is crucial to communicate again with your doctor. They can go for more examinations or try other methods to cope with your situation.

I was having a leg pain and my sister gave me a drug that was made of diclofenac-misoprostol. After taking the drug I had intense lower abdominal pain and bled. I’m a virgin and I’m afraid that affected my hymen.

Female | 22

Combinational drug diclofenac-misoprostol is widely used to alleviate pain symptoms. But it may cause some severe side effects including abdominal pain and bleeding, especially in patients with ulcer history. If any of these symptoms occur, you should visit a gastroenterologist immediately. It is highly advised that you do not take any medications unless a doctor has prescribed such.

Dear Dr. , Good morning I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to seek your medical advice regarding several health issues I have been experiencing recently. These symptoms are affecting my daily life, and I am concerned about their underlying causes. Below is a detailed description of the symptoms I am facing: 1. **Immunity and Oxygen Problems:** I have been feeling unusually fatigued and prone to frequent infections, which makes me concerned about my immune system. Additionally, I sometimes experience shortness of breath and dizziness, indicating possible issues with oxygen delivery. 2. **Digestive Issues:** I am suffering from constipation and bloating. My stools are irregular, and there is a persistent bad smell in my flatulence. These symptoms are accompanied by a feeling of discomfort in my stomach. 3. **Body Cramps:** I frequently experience cramps in various parts of my body. These cramps can be quite painful and are affecting my mobility and comfort. 4. **General Malaise:** There is an ongoing sense of unease and a strange feeling within my body that I cannot specifically describe. It is a general sense of not feeling well, which is concerning and distressing. 5. **Throat Mucus:** I often feel as though there is mucus stuck in my throat. This sensation is especially pronounced in the mornings, and drinking water or brushing my teeth can sometimes make me feel like I am going to vomit. Given the variety and persistence of these symptoms, I am worried about my overall health and well-being. I would greatly appreciate it if we could schedule an appointment to discuss these issues in detail and undergo any necessary examinations or tests to determine the root causes and appropriate treatments. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your guidance and assistance in improving my health. Sincerely, irfan Advocate Civil court Varanasi Mobile no -9454950104,7275631533

If you have been experiencing fatigue, frequent illnesses, or difficulty breathing this could mean that your immune system is weak or you have low oxygen levels. Also constipation, bloating, and smelly gas could be signs of digestive problems. Muscle cramps are not only painful but can also be very uncomfortable at times. The ‘weird’ sensation that you mentioned and any throat mucus might also be connected to overall wellness issues in your body. Therefore, you must see a medic so that they may examine you thoroughly and offer appropriate remedies for these signs.

I am a 21 year old. I am experiencing mild stomach cramping and need like pain. And sharp pain on my lower abdomen especially while urinating

Female | 21

It appears that a UTI might be the problem you’re having. UTIs sometimes lead to cramps in the stomach along with pain in the back or a sudden sharp pain in the lower abdomen when you urinate. These occur because bacteria have entered your urethra. You should drink plenty of water and take antibiotics. To avoid getting more UTIs, make sure to urinate after sex and keep good hygiene.
