No, Pyrantel pamoate kills roundworms and hookworms; however it does not kill tapeworm. If you think about the infection with tapeworms, it is recommended to refer a gastroenterologist for accurate diagnosis 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.

I am a 24 year old male have diarrhea since Sunday Morning. I tried anti diarrhea medication and still no relief. Chills when I go to sleep

Male | 24

Loose poop is when you go to the bathroom a lot and it is watery. It can happen from bugs, bad food, or worry. Drink lots of water so you don't get dry. Eat simple foods like plain rice, bread, and bananas. If it keeps happening, talk to a gastroenterologist.

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.

I drank one beer and after 2 hours i drank 1000mg tynol is it bad?

Female | 34

I warn against alcohol or acetaminophen (Tylenol) co-ingestion due to the possibility of liver injury. It is advised to allow yourself at least 24-hour interval after drinking before taking acetaminophen. If you are experiencing any symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, or vomiting, you need to contact a gastroenterologist.

When preforming large deep enemas, I was curious if such an enema could flow into the appendix as well as the Ileum? If so would such a thing be harmful?

Female | 25

When performing large deep enemas, the fluid can potentially reach the ileum but is unlikely to flow into the appendix due to its narrow opening. However, doing this procedure at home can be risky. It is always best to consult a gastroenterologist to understand the safe practices and risks involved.

Male | 63

Considering you father's medical history of diabetes and past gastritis, its important to seek medical attention from a gastroenterologist for a thorough evaluation. The doctor may recommend tests to determine the underlying cause, such as GERD or gastritis.

Apart from medications lifestyle modifications, dietary adjustments, weight management, and stress reduction techniques can also help alot..

Your signs like high heat, loose poop, and low energy could be from typhoid fever. Typhoid fever is caused by a germ called Salmonella typhi that can be found in dirty food or water. The cure is antibiotics and drinking lots of water. It is important to see a doctor for the right help and cure.

When saftypin stay in my stomch since 2 years what's happened

Male | 22

Carrying a safety pin in your stomach for 2 long years can result in dangerous situations. You may get a tummy ache, feel like you are going to throw up, or actually, throw up. The pin can cause a tear in the lining of your stomach and be the reason for the infection. It is important to have it done through surgery. If the pin stays there it can cause other problems. A doctor must be seen immediately to get help.

Extensive atherosclerotic calcifications are seen in aorta and its branches. Imaged portions of heart appear unremarkable ABDOMEN AND PELVIS FINDINGS: The distal third of esophagus shows asymmetric increased circumferential wall thickening involving about 4.2cm of distal esophagus extending to the gastroesophageal junction, causing luminal narrowing. It is showing enhancement on post contrast images. The fat planes around the esophagus are preserved and there is no evidence of invasion into adjacent structures. A few (2 lymph nodes) prominent lymph nodes are seen in the distal peri esophageal location largest one measuring 7.3mm. Liver, gallbladder, pancreas and spleen appear unremarkable. Multiple fluid density cysts of variable sizes are seen in both kidneys; largest one in left kidney measure 2.6 x 2.3 cm in left upper pole and 1.2 x 1.2 cm in in right inter polar region. Both adrenal glands appear unremarkable. ■No significant ascites or lymphadenopathy noted. Imaged bowel structures appear unremarkable. Prostate and urinary bladder appear unremarkable.

Two prominent lymph nodes in peri esophageal region. Multiple tiny nodules of ground glass haze in bilateral lower lobes.... highly suspicious for lung metastasis from esophageal primary. No evidence of bony or hepatic metastasis in current scan. Needs clinical correlation.

Male | 77

Your father is suffering from some sort of food stuck in his esophagus. A CT scan that your father had done shows that he suffers from esophageal adenocarcinoma, which is a kind of cancer located in the esophagus. Such conditions can lead to difficulties in swallowing, chest pain, and losing weight. The treatment options may consist of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Communicating with his gastroenterologist is the best way for you to arrive at an effective plan.

Hey .I got my gallbladder removed onthe 3rd October 2022 but I still get pains on right side .I'm always bloated what is scaring me Is i feel like my muscles or nerves are stiff and always in pains.what could cause more unexplainable complications after gallbladder removal and should be done .I go to the doctor they give me ulcer medd and pain blocks

Female | 32

Having lingering discomfort after gallbladder removal isn't unusual. However, ongoing right-side pain might indicate complications. You could potentially be dealing with post-cholecystectomy syndrome. This condition sometimes occurs due to affected bile ducts or digestive troubles. Consulting your gastroenterologist is crucial for relief. Additional tests or medications may be recommended to manage persistent symptoms. Take care!

Is the itching in anal part is the symptoms of piles

Female | 15

Anal itching may indicate piles. Piles are swollen veins in the rectum. Pain, blood, and anal lumps suggest piles too. Causes involve straining during bowel movements. Constipation or prolonged sitting contributes. Fiber-rich diet, water intake, avoiding straining help. But if symptoms persist, see a gastroenterologist.
