Suggest treatment for lower abdominal pain

Hello. My name is Tim. I have been having extreme lower stomach pain and constant diahhrea. The pain prevents me from eating and is extreme. It has seemed to settle in my pelvic area all the way around. I went to a GI and had an upper and lower scope. They told me nothing except for moderately inflamed stomach (unexplained). Take pepcid and maalox. No effect of course. None of this happened until I had two back surgeries. A failed laminectomy and a double fusion later in the L4-5 S5-1 discs. They just tell me to go back to my GI (in their group), but it seems a waste of cash since work fired me for my back injury, so no insurance. I am also under psychiatric care for bipolar/manic depressive conditions. Any ideas? I am also getting constant leg and hand cramps/spasms. Sometimes my hand will clamp up and I have to stretch it and wait it out. The leg spasms make me jump out of bed thrashing until it stops. Pls help if possible. It feels like I have a piece of metal lodged in my gut/upper duodenal area.

<start> Dear Tim,I have gone through your case history very carefully.as your upper and lower scope result is normal it seems that nothing is so serious about your gut.the pain and diarrhoea can be due to excessive acid secretion.so this can be cured by taking medicines like ranitidine regularly .then as far as your pain and spasm in legs are concern it is because the spinal nerves has been affected by failed laminectomy and later double fusion in L45 and L5S1 region.to get relief from this pain try some home regimen of back muscle relieving exercise like flexion exercise.but certainly you should continue your treatment for Bipolar/manic depressive condition.otherwise it will aggravate your pain.my best wishes for you in coming days.thank you. <end>

What should i do for severe stomach pain?

So here is my situation---The problem started back in January after I ate a tomato. About an hour after eating the tomato I felt a sharp pain in my stomach. Later I felt nauseous; however I did not throw up. I also felt a strong discomfort in my stomach as well. After taking a nap, the situation resolved itself and I felt better. However now (since the tomato episode) when I eat almost anything, the discomfort comes back, yet I do not feel nearly as nauseous as compared to the tomato episode and the pain is completely gone. Also I feel like there is a lump between the border of my neck and my esophagus. Another thing that is troubling about my situation is when I eat certain foods like buckwheat porridge or potatoes, I get the feeling that something is about to go down (for example I might throw up) and I need to stop eating and take a break/lie down. Foods like eggs and oatmeal go down a little better. Lastly my burping (I always had the burps) has increased to the point where I feel uncomfortable. I went to the gastroenterologist* and he originally suspected an ulcer, however after performing an upperoscopy/colonoscopy and a biopsy of my stomach, he informed me I had h.pylori and prescribed me three drugs/antibiotics (Amoxicillin, Clarithromycin and Omeprazole) . After doing some research on h.pylori, I was able to learn that a lot of people have it, yet they do not even know about it. *Besides going the gastroenterologist, I also went to the ER two times and they performed some scans (don’t know the specific names) and of course drew my blood, which was normal UPDATE: After following treatment It has been determined that I m free of the h.pylori virus. This has been determined with the help of a breath test--Also my GI recommended I take a Gastric Emptying Solid test in order to test for the Gastroparesis diagnose. That came back negative as well, even showing that my food digests (goes thur) faster than liquid. My question to you is what do you think I have?---as I m not feeling any better and have lost a lot of weight due to not being able to eat properly.

<start> You had H. pylori infection and got treated but you may still suffer from acidity (gastritis) and indigetion. How is your bowel? Are they clear or you have constipation? Take diet rich in fibres and avoid refined floor, fat etc.(try to change your food habits). Exercise regularly and try to stick to the time table. Avoid eating very hot food and drink plenty of water. gradually you will feel better. <end>

Will the severe abdominal pain be due to ulcer?

Hi I am a 30yr old female. I have extreme sharp piercing pain in my lower left abdomen. Could I have a Ulcer? Went to hospital as I realized it was not a normal menstrual cramp.They ran tests and a CT scan only found a small cyst. Would an Ulcer show on CT scan? The pain seems to worsen after eating.

<start> Hi, the pain of ulcer is not piercing, its rather mild to severe dull and localised in left upper abdomen radiating to back. Ulcer is best diagnosed with endoscopy. You haven't mentionaed the site of cyst. If the pain is due to that you must consult the doctor and follow the advice. Till that take tab Meftal spas and rablet L. <end>

Suggest treatment for abdominal pain and vomitting

Hvi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here... Hi Iâ??m very worried about my husband by a process of elimination we have concluded that he may have a problem with his pancreas although he has undergone many tests that donâ??t show anything. â?¢     When he drinks alcohol not very much maybe 5 beers the following day he is very sick he vomits up to 20 times very strongly almost projectile and it is acid, this varies in strength and colour. It takes him 2/3 days to recover and leaves him very weak he worries about the effect it has on his head as he suffers with pain from the force of vomiting and has strange dreams in the following days. Also he worries about the effect the strength of the vomiting has on his heart as it leaves him so weak â?¢     We think it is the pancreas because he has pain in this area on the left hand side at the back high up opposite the liver. He also suffers pain in the area above the stomach. He attempted to have a camera investigate the problem but the camera could not pass they attempted 4 times and gave up, surely this indicates some kind of blockage? When he is well enough to eat again, if he eats for example soup he is left with a burning sensation inside. â?¢     This whole situation leaves him feeling very sad sometimes even depressed I think itâ??s not knowing what is causing it and he worries about his health I really want to help him sort it out hope you can help . Should you need any further clarification please do not hesitate to contact me. Regards Catherine

<start> Hi, your husband couldn't digest alcohol thats why he vomits violently thereafter. Many of people does have this kind of problem. You have to avoid alcohol or keep it minimal. Try pantop 40 and emset for vomitting. Did he went through endoscopy. what kind of camera you are talking about. Please elaborate. Liver or pancrease problems can be better diagnosed with blood reports and if needed CT SCAN. For burning sensation after meal take Pantop 40. You can go for endoscopy also. <end>

Suggest medication for lower abdominal pain

Good evening, my main symptom is dull pain in my lower left abdomen, especially when breathing in and seems to be occurring after eating a large meal. It has been occurring off and on for over 5 years. It started when I was using the bathroom and felt a very strong sharp pain in the same area 5 years ago.

<start> First of all, if the pain is persistent I will advice you to go for abdominal ultrasound to isolate the cause. For treatment you can take some antibiotic preferably cefadroxyl or ciprofloxacin after an expert opinion along with meftal-spaz or cyclopam for abdominal cramps or pain. Take gelusil-mps plus or mucaine gel syrup for gastric upset. <end>

Suggest treatment for hernia

I have a wellness/chiropractic physician who recommends I stop all caffeine. I drink lots of water and green tea, both decaffeinated and regular. I also have (sometimes) two or three cups of coffee a day. The reason I have this question is because I love coffee (prefer it black). I don t drink it with sugar because I don t care for sugar in my coffee or in anything else. However, I sometimes drink a cup of black coffee or put a non-diary creamer (thinking that s better than black) in it. I have had three intestinal surgeries in the past (the last one being two years ago) and my wellness doctor states that caffeine can cause leaky intestines. Is there anyway at all I can continue having coffee without intestinal concerns? So far I ve not had any problems. I had heard that there is an excellent coffee (very expensive) that can be agreeable to a situation such as mine. My surgeries began from a car accident in 1988 (ruptured diaphragm). Then years later this caused scar tissue to build-up which then created blockages in the intestines. Therefore, a second surgery was required to open up the intestines and unblock the problem. I was told not to eat grains, seeds, popcorn, berries of any kind, nuts, etc. and to always chew my food well. I followed doctor s orders, however, over time another blockage developed in addition to creating two hernias. Apparently, I caused the hernias from lifting and carrying too many books while I was attending college classes. Thereby, another surgery was required. Since then I developed one more blockage from eating a piece of meat I didn t chew well. The doctor wanted to operate a fourth time and I said absolutely not! I said I would change my eating habits on my own and I have successfully done so. I no longer consume meat, only fish. I eat some dairy products in small amounts. I eat eggs, well cooked vegetables, and very soft fruits (no skin). I don t drink sodas (never did), no alcohol (over 24 years), or juices. I only drink water, green tea, skimmed milk, and coffee (1-3 a day). Any suggestions? Is there a special coffee that is okay to drink? Or should I absolutely stop all coffee (regular/decaffeinated)? By the way, I don t smoke nor take any drugs (prescription or otherwise). I take supplements (Standard Process) only and Fish Oil. I am now 65 years of age and overall my health is really good. I have had numerous hip replacements from being born with hip displacements and have congenital feet and hand deformities (many surgeries in the past to correct these conditions as well). I really do want an answer regarding my coffee intake. No matter what is recommended, I will follow what is suggested. Thank you, Respectfully, T.J. Currier (nickname for Trudi)

<start> Hi Trudi. I feel your concern. You are really brave having had so many surgeries. And most importantly now your determination to follow whatever is instructed.That's a factor which has motivated me to express the management experience that I acquired through my own life been in the habit of consuming coffees n teas in excess. The difference between you and me is only that I could understand Ayurveda and medical aspects better having been trained in this field.Do not want to leave coffee or can leave ? Latter option is better. But you die for coffee ! Okay at 65 enjoy the rest of life with little easy procedures.Get Licorice powder ( Glycyrrhiza glabra) and Amalaki ( Indian gooseberry) - Phyllanthus emblica powder. Mix in equal quantities. Take half to one teaspoonful, lick by mixing in honey at least 8 hrly or 12 hrly. This will smear your inner lining of stomach and intestines against pungent foods and acid etc. It will heal Ulcers too. Do not take anything for 30 minutes or so. But that doesn't mean you start taking excess coffee.One more alternative is Avipattikar chooran - a classic herbal powder combo - commonly available in India. May get on net or we can also help if needed. Similar way it can be taken as explained above. If you do not like honey or is diabetic, these may be taken with water or milk too.Taste may not be palatable. But being natural its safe, effective but little slow unlike toxic drugs. So you will be at advantage with your determination.As for your scars and strictures in intestines, please get BAEL ( stone apple) pulp powder. Take 1 tsp twice or thrice in yogurt or with water regularly. If you mix it with Isabgul husk 1 tsp , it will be much better. Again commonly available in India.Now most important. Learn little Yoga simple exercises for stomach and intestines. Do for 20- 30 minutes a day. Do little deep breathing exercises. See difference in next one month.All above are totally harmless, scientific, natural and economic.Now be happy. Wish you normal consumption of coffee without problems.If it helps say thanks to HCM. <end>

What causes abdominal pain while on HCG diet?

I have a friend who has been on the HCG diet for about 6 weeks. She told me she has been having sharp pains on the left side of her abdomen, underneath the rib cage. She says the pain has been coming and going for about 2 weeks. Is this a common side effect of the diet? If so, what causes it and does she need medical attention? If not, to what might this pain be attributed?

<start> Thank you for asking Healthcare majic. My name is Dr Ehsan Ullah & I have gone through your query.First of all , it should be remembered that HCG diet is not recommended by FDA as an over the counter drug due to its potential health care issues and safety risks.your friend's main concern is regarding the abdominal pain...I don't know for which purpose she is using HCG dietas some people are prescribed this for Fertility issueswhile others use it for weight reduction purposes although Existing evidence does not support the use of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in weight reduction, and the use of hCG for this purpose is not supported by the American Medical Association (AMA) or the American Society of Bariatric Physicians. However, diets that so severely limit calories have risks, such as gallstone formation, irregular heartbeat and electrolytes imbalanceSide effects reported with the HCG diet include restlessness, depression, fatigue, irritability, edema (fluid build up )Breast swelling Another serious concern is thromboembolism(the risk of blood clots forming and blocking blood vessels).The area you mentioned as beneath left side of her chest cage is of Spleen, and if such pains persist then it's advisable to stop the HCG diet and seek medical attention.although pain in this region is not specific or common side effect of HCG diets but HCG has potential risk hormonal imbalance and clot formation which can indirectly affect any organ ...This pain can be from some other pathology too, so clinical evaluation is recommended by the physician to role out the cause Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks. <end>

I have increased urination regularly. Ive been getting nauseous and throwing up randomly for a few weeks now. And today i got heat flash and i was dizzy but also cold and clammy all while having diarrhea, lower stomach pain and throwing up. Lasted maybe twenty minutes. I took a pregnancy test and it came up negative so im not pregnant.

<start> Hi.Thank for your query.Read and understood your concerns.Noted your history which is suggestive of mixed infection of the urinary tract as well as intestinal tract. Most of the medicines are equally effective in both the infections like oflaxacin or cefixime. Consult your Doctor for clinical evaluation, examination and undertaking tests of urine, stool and ultrasonography of the abdomen to start with. Special investigation will be needed only if the initial medical management fails. <end>

Suggest treatment for severe lower abdominal pain

Hi, I had a CT done of my pelvic area. I had a hysterectomy in Nov. 2014, and have had lower left abdominal pain since. The CT says there appears to be either an atrophic uterus or prominent cervix. They were both removed with my hysterectomy. My female Dr has ordered an ultra sound. I am very confused and not getting an answers. My family Dr. Said it is fluid in my pelvic area. I have not personally spoken with my female Dr who did my surgery, she reviewed the CT , and ordered an ultra sound.

<start> Ideally after hysterectomy, there should be no atrophic uterus or prominent cervix. Hysterectomy is usually removalbif uterus with surrounding structures.Ultrasound has been ordered to re assess the success of procedure done. <end>

What does normal PET scan in a person with malignant ascites indicate?

A family friend of mine has been diagnosed with malignant ascites with no definite location of cancer. She s being bounced around from DR to DR. They suspect stomach cancer but her PET scan showed no hot spots. I am trying to help her through this process. We are just confused as to the cause of it. She has an extreme ulcer that she has been dealing with for a year. Original biopsy of ulcer came back negative. They are doing another endoscopy this week with ultrasound and deeper biopsy. She has lost over 60lbs this year and severe muscle mass. Nobody will give her an answer or outlook. Everything I m reading online states that malignant ascites has a bad prognosis. But why doesn t anything show up on a PET scan?

<start> Hi.Thanks for your query and history.Read and understood your concern for your friend with malignant ascites.I hope the fluid from abdomen shows cancer cells as a confirmed diagnosis.PET scam has its own limitations, it may not show up everything.Malignant ascites means stage 4 disease and mrefs palliative treatment.Some anticancer injections are available to be instilled in the abdominal cavity to help the patient.Take her to the cancer hospital for further advise and care. <end>

<start> Welcome to healthcare magicI am Dr Fahim, and I will be answering your query . . .      I have gone through your question and understood your concerns. It appears to be recurrent Urinary Tract Infection as fever which is high grade and is associated with lower abdominal pain. However other differential should also be kept in mind like gastroenteritis, typhoid fever or malaria. If such a patient walks in to my clinic, after detail history and clinical examination I request for blood complete picture, urine routine examination and ULTRASONOGRAPHY KUB (KIDNEYS, URETER AND URINARY BLADDER) along with ABDOMEN. Since she used antibiotics earlier, it is then recommended that go for her URINE FOR CULTURE SENSITIVITY, which will not only tell us about organism responsible for infection but will also guide us about appropriate antibiotics. I hope my answer will help you. Please do rate my answer if you like itRegards <end>

Suggest treatment for severe lower abdominal pain after having alcohol

Hello, I drank a large amount of alcohol last night and this morning I ve been feeling very stomach-achy. But my lower stomach has been making an unusual amount of gurgling noise and water rushing noise today. I m worried that it might have something to do with alcohol poisoning? And I ve also completely lost my apetite.

<start> stomach ache: absolutely normal. alcoholics stimulates gastric secretion. take solid food as crackers and drink a lot (excessive alcohol dehydrates our body). water rushing noise: alcohol has osmotic powers and recalls water in your gut, sometimes provoking diarrhea. lower abdomen pain: this may be due either to the diarrhea or to acute alcoholic pancreatitis. if your pain has a belt distribution (from belly going around to back) go to the ER, analyse lipasis and amylasis levels and, if raised, abdomen CT with contrast. <end>

You are on 2nd day of menstrual period. Since you have given a detailed history, it appears that there is some inflammatory process going on the right side and the probably diagnosis can be :AppendicitisInflammation of the tubes or problems with ovary.

The diagnosis hence made will give us the plan for management. <end>

What causes severe stabbing lower abdominal pain while sneezing or coughing?

I get really sudden severe stabbing pain in my right, lower abdomen (right above the hip bone) when I cough or sneeze. It aches right through to my back and the pain is slowly getting worse over a few days. I also feel like I have a cold or flu coming on. Throat kind of hurts and just kind of don't feel good. It's a vague feeling of being unwell. Less hungry too but still some appetite. Oh ya - it hurts when I push to have a bowel movement too.

<start> Hi,Good Evening,Thanks for your query.I studied your query with all the details and understood your health concerns.-In my opinion-the cause -of the severe stabbing pain in lower abdomen,-with referred pain to back -and that pain worstening over few days- is due to the -Inguino-scrotal hernia mostly-as you have to push up when sitting for the bowel movements.-Referrence of pain to back-is due to the spermatic cord and testicular compression and stretching.All this has increased and precipitated due to the URTI with acute rhinitis with sneezing and coughing.-Lack of appetite is due to the URTI and not due to herniation.So this would help you to understand the worries you had with this lower abdominal pain.Hope this would help you to plan the treatment with ER surgeon.Wishing you early recovery.Wellcome to HCM for further query in this regard.Good night from INdia.- <end>

Suggest medication for abdominal pain

Sir/Madam, My son aged 2 1/2 years has been suffering from stomachache since two weeks. His weight is 10 kg only. Though he is not continuously informing about the pain in stomach but often he is reporting the same. We consulted the doctor he prescribed some antibiotic syrups. After a week to 10 days he suffered with nausea one time and motions some time. After explaining the situation to the doctor he suggested for blood and urine test and ultra scanning of abdomen. Blood tests are normal just the Hemoglobin percentage is less compare to actual. He has Hemoglobin as 10.4 only while actual normal has to be between 13.5-18.5 as per their report. But in the matter of T.W.B.C. he has 12900 cells/cu mm while actual should be between 4000-11000. It seems much than actual. Regarding ultra scanning report all the report is normal. But at the end of the report they mentioned Few enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes are noted in epigastrium and umbilical regions, largest one measuring 15x8 mm. They gave the impression as: Feature suggestive of mesenteric lymphadenopathy. *Suggested clinical correlation and further evaluation. After going through the report our regular doctor prescribed cyclopam for pain, zifi for cough/cold or as antibiotic. As we are not satisfied with the treatment of the doctor, I brought my son to another doctor where he given us lot of courage saying that this is the normal problem in children and it will be cured. He prescribed OFSIVITA, ENTEROGERMINA, Z & D, JUNIOR LANZOL, D-TUS FOR FIVE DAYS AND ADVISED TO STOP THE MEDICINE AFTER THE SAID PERIOD AND THE DISEASE WILL CURE ITS OWN. There is no fever, continuous motions, vomiting, night swet are noted in my son. But he is looking like too weak and not active than the previous days. He is playing but not with previous excitement. For the past few days we are trying to give liquid food to him. That may be one of the causes for his weakness. But his digestive power is too low since his birth. As on 15.01.2011 his weight is 11.3 kgs. In this regard, some people are scaring us that if we not take good treatment, this may be leads to different diseases such as TB, Cancer, etc. Sir, we are in too much tension. We are also not eating our food properly. This problem is from about 4 to 5 months we are facing. Recently a person by reading information which I put online, called me from Gujarat and he has a son of 5 years old having the same symptoms since 9 months. He informed that no Doctor is giving concurrent answer and he told that they are telling that this is normal infection which cures itself only within a few days or weeks or years. Till now I didn’t get my son for TB test and I am scared about the test to clarify my doubt that whether this problem is due to any cancer virus. We hope that you will help us in this regard for advising us as well as giving courage. Kindly suggest best cautions to be taken, medicine to be used, and the food to be given. We are in need of early reply sir. Thanking you, God may bless you. Muhammad Siddiq Bhimavaram W.G. Dist., Andhra Pradesh 0000

What is the reason of abdominal pain?

Hi I believe I may have HAE. I am male 48 years old living in Spain. At the age of 14 (first attack) I was taken to hospital for severe abdominal pain. I have returned with the same symptoms over 10 times and never found a cause. I was told it may be a grumbling appendix. Apart from that I have a rash on my buttocks, have constant urinary tract infections and constantly urinate with a very week flow and quite often have top concentrate to urinate. I also have constant nasal drip thick mucus at the back of my throat every morning that causes me to vomit when trying to brush my teeth. I have mentioned all this to my doctor and have been to hospital and asked for the blood test but so far have been refused. I am being treated separately for all the symptoms. I am told allergies cause the mucus problems even though antihistamines nasal spray and such like do help a little it never eradicates it. urinary problems I am told is psychosomatic and pains in stomach are due to grumbling appendix. Rash is also allergy. Apart from that I had tonsillitis for 6 months and weeping blisters on my face as one of separate attacks. I have just discovered that HAE exists and it seems very strange that I have all the symptoms. Life is good but it would be much better without the problems in the morning with mucus and the urination problems. Would appreciate any advise or help. I have no idea why my Dr will not do the test for C1 and C4 inhibitors. Do you think it could be something else?

Suggest treatment for pain and burning sensation in the lower abdomen

Ok. Since a couple of weeks ago, I started to feel some weird heating or burning pointing pain in the lower left abdomen probably in the connection between the intestine and the colon. This occurred only when I bend or lift my left leg. Only at that moments. Thank you.

<start> Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. If I were your doctor, after a clinical assessment of your abdomen to rule out chances of any inguinal hernia, I would advise you for an anti inflammatory along with a proton pump inhibitor drug presuming it to be a muscular strain. In addition I would also go for an ultrasound of whole abdomen to rule out any intra abdominal pathological process.I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef. <end>

What causes burning sensation and pain in the abdomen?

I went to walking centre and was prescribed trimethoprim for UTI. Today is the 5 th day.Bleeding has stopped but i am still having burning sensation and abdominal pain.i am feeling tired and lithargic. I don t think the antibiotics have made much difference, except the severe bleeding has stopped.What should I do? I am also suffering from the sciatica pain on my back and the right hip and leg

<start> Thanks for your consultation at HCM! I have read your case history and you probably got Urinary tract infection for which you have been prescribed antibiotic empirically... You should stop the antibiotic for 48 hours and after 48 hrs get the culture sensitivity of the urine done from a midstream voided urine....also get fresh urinalysis and the full blood count... Start the antibiotic according to report of culture sensitivity....meanwhile consume plenty of water take rest and avoid any sexual contact... As far as sciatica is concerned it has nothing to dp with the UTI.. Hope your querry is adequately answered if u still has any feel free to ask.. Regards Dr Saad sultan <end>

Suggest treatment for severe abdominal pain

my daughter is 14 and experiencing abdominal pain on her lower abdomen. Just below the belly button and feels worse when standing and after eating. it is not constant and has been going on for about 1 week. She says the pain goes from mild to moderate. Any ideas?

<start> Hi.Thanks for your query.Noted the history of pain in abdomen of a 14 year old daughter below the belly button.Feels worst on standing and sitting.The commonest reasons of such a pain in a young girl are:Meckel's Diverticulitis. This is an outpouching from the small intestine which is a mobile organ hence the pain increases with movement.Other reasons can be enlarged lymph node mass, appendicitis enteritis and so on. I would advise in such a case the following:CT scan of the abdomen and if the reason is surgical go for diagnostic laparoscopy and get the surgery done. I hope this answer helps you. <end>

What causes constant throbbing pain in the abdomen?

Hi, I get alot of abdominal pains and feel like im so bloated and there is a constant dull, throbbing ache. I also have a lump down below but when doctor examined me he told me i had a lower bowel, but told me to have a smear to be on the safe side. Which i did... Then i got my results back within 8 days which was severe dyskaryosis. I have an appointment for a colposcopy in 5 days. Now im slightly worried because i have been to my doctor about these pains before and he told me they were stomache spasms. Ive also had problems with my hormones, they have been hitting through the roof, and i dont know if im coming or going??? Ontop of all this i had blood test on my hormones a few month ago to which they came back abnormal and that i wasnt fertile, then when taking again the next month came back fine??? I have also had to have treatment for facial hair (which i had to pay hundred of pounds out of my own money for) which has layed heavy on my confidence.... I get constant back ache too, i feel my body is a complete mess right now and everytime i get these throbbing/dull ache pains (On a daily basis) i worry more incase these cells are spreading? Please can you give me some advice im only 23 years old and i know that my body doesnt right i feel. Much appreciated. thank you

<start> Hi! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. If I were your doctor, I after a clinical assessment of your abdomen would advise you for an ultrasound of the abdomen apart from the hormone analysis. with your symptoms of virilisation and history of lump down, you might be having PCOD (polycystic ovarian disease) which if treated might give you relief in your symptoms. I would advise you to take appointment with a gynaecologist and consult on your problem with all your reports. Till then, I could advise you for simple anti spasmodics only for relief of your pain in the abdomen. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem.

Suggest treatment for upper quadrant abdominal pain

I am having very stron upper stomach pain. It makes me really nauseous and every time I eat , it aggravates the pain. A little back pain too. I was admitted to a hospital about 4 months ago that after doing a CT of abdomen & pelvis with IV contrast. The summary was fatty involution, most notably involving the pancreatic head. There is diffuse low density of the remainder of pancreas, which may be chronic but could be indicative of developing pancreatic necrosis. Spots seen on pancreas. I am having real pain in upper abdomen, can t eat & really nauseous. Should I go to the hospital. Nothing helps

<start> Hi. you are having fatty infiltration of pancreas. this is common in patients who are obese and diabetic. Recently, it is shown by researchers that fatty infiltration of pancreas can be associated with increased risk of development of pancreatic cancer. Also, your pain may be related to chronic pancreatitis which can degenerate into fatty pancreas. my recommendation for you will be 1. control sugar and weight loss 2. meet a gastroenterologist for evaluation and treatment of pain 3. be in regular follow up with a pancreatic surgeon for fatty pancreas . all the best <end>

What causes sharp lower abdominal pain?

Hello, I just received notice late today RE: an ultrasound, that some sharp pain in the lower abdominal area on the left side (generally around the belt area & below) is considered a "bulging muscle" & not a hernia. The nurse could not explain further - & I see my surgeon in about 3 weeks (due to a right inguinal hernia surgery which was performed 3 weeks ago). The nurse said I could discuss the issue with the surgeon at the appointment. I am confused as to what exactly a "bulging muscle" in that physical anatomical region would be, and what is the treatment potentially - or will this just subside...? Thank you for your input based on my information supplied.... Jon Spallees

<start> Hi.Thanks for your query.Read and understood that you had undergone a hernia surgery 3 weeks ago and ultrasonography was done to know the reasons. It showed a bulged muscle and not a hernia. This bulged muscle may be the one which is used in hernia repair to overlap the gap caused by the hernia which the Radiologist may not know about. The sharp pains are usually caused by the nerve entrapment in the scar which is developing. Gabapentin or Amitryptilin may help reduce the pain or may need a small neurectomy later. I hope this clears your doubts. <end>

I am experiencing an throbbing ache in my mid to lower range of my abdomen. It started last night and even after taking ibrophen and tylenol I was able to sleep but still restless and it has not subsided. Could this be appendicitis? On the right side of my body. email address is YYYY@YYYY

<start> Thanks for your consultation at HCM ! I have gone through your case history and it doesn't look like Acute Appendicitis. The pain of acute appendicitis starts initially as a diffuse pain around umbilicus and later it shifts towards the right side ( right illiac fossa ). It is also accompanied by an episode of vomitting and nausea and it is severely tender to touch in right illiac fossa. You better get your Full blood count test done.. To look for raised WBC count...also get urinalysis done too. An expert ultrasound will be helpful in ruling out Acute Appendicitis and other probable causes of your pain. Hope your querry has been addressed properly if u still get any feel free to ask. Regards Dr Saad Sultan <end>

Second you should have done CT abdomen with pancreatic protocol to rule out recurrent pancreatitis... For time being if you are in stress and have sleep disturbances do take alprazolam .25 mg at night daily it will help relieve your symptoms....Also meet a consultant of Internal Medicine too. Hope your question has been answered appropriately.... If u still got any query feel free to ask... Regards Dr Saad Sultan <end>

I am over weight and my doctor said it will probably come back just as a fatty tissue, but I am worried since 4 grandparents, mother, father and oldest sibling all died of cancer and none of them were lung cancer.

<start> Thanks for your consultation at HCM! I have gone through your case but haven't mentioned your age? As far as my diagnosis is concerned you gave got Urinary tract infection.. UTI has got alot of causes ,If u have got enlarged prostate then it might be the cause... Other probability is that you might have got any bladder stone which is giving you UTI along with other symptoms..last but not the least is your sexual partner she should also be examined in order to reach diagnosis. You should also be looked for Prostatitis..you may need to to Urinalysis , full blood count , Urodynsmic studies, Cystoscopy , and semen analysis.. Do visit the Urolgist and it will help you in diagnosing your case after proper history examination and investigations... Coming towards the high blood pressure they probably were looking at your adrenal glands for any pathology and renal arteries which they failed to picked... Hope your question has been answered appropriately but if. U still got one feel free to ask. Regards Dr Saad Sultan <end>

What causes pain and swelling near spleen?

I was diagnosed with an enlarged spleen that had some kind of growth at the top of it in 2006, then following that diagnosis approximately a month later at most I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia with severe swelling of the hands and feet, however I noticed during these times of swelling I had pain on my left side where my spleen is - Could all of these be because of gallstones? Or, what could be the cause of all of this? Seriously Considering Eastern Medical Treatments!!!! Thanks, Cathy

<start> these problems are unlikely to be due to gallstones. first, it is better if you find what is causing the swelling in the spleen using CT scan and blood tests. a diagnosis of fibromyalgia can be unrelated to splenomegaly or rarely be associated with blood and rheumatic disorders. I would suggest you to contact a hematologist for further evaluation <end>

<start> Hi,Welcome to health care magic,Right side abdominal pain radiating to lower part could be due to ovarian cyst(likely in your case)or choleycystitis,etc.You can go for complete blood works,electrolytes and abdominal ultrasound for confirm diagnosis, Meanwhile you should take antibiotics with anaerobic bacterial coverage with antacids like proton pump inhibitors or digene and avoid oily,spicy,heavy foods.If problem persists then you need to see gastroenterologist and gynecologist.Regards, <end>

Suggest treatment for constant abdominal pain

At the beginning of December 2013, I began feeling like my stomach was unsettled and bloated. I also had difficulty completely emptying my bowel. Around mid-December, after running a 5K, I had pain in on the right side in my pelvic area which lasted for a week. I also had pain and pressure under my right rib cage. The pain in the pelvic area increased and I had abdominal swelling (a pelvic MRI showed nothing). When the swelling and pain did not subside, I ended up going to the ER in January of 2104 . All they found after a CAT scan was excess abdominal fluid; they said this was possibly from an ovarian cyst that had ruptured. My GI woes continued and I felt like I was emptying too much from my bowels whenever I went in the morning. The stools would often stick to the toilet bowl. I also continued to have incomplete evacuation. This continued on and off for months. In April and May, I had two days where my stomach felt so bloated and full that I had to throw up to relieve the pressure. In May, I ran the Broad Street run and had stomach pain the entire race. All throughout the summer, I still had problems with emptying my bowels and emptying what looked like too much. In August, I took my migraine meds (Immitrex, which always gave me abdominal pain, but I continued to take it as it took away my migraines) one night and went for a 16 mile run the next day. When I finished, I had bad pain under my right ribcage and the pain descended down to my stomach. I ate chili that night and this worsened my pain to the point where I considered going to the ER. This triggered two months of my stomach feeling unsettled and my stools looked like sludge (again, I was emptying too much and still could not completely empty my bowel). After this “GI attack” I lost 7 pounds. I finally went to a GI doctor in October who discovered after doing an endoscopy that I had severe esophogitis (even though I never had any symptoms of GERD—no acid reflux, esophageal burning, etc). There was also a small, benign nodule that had formed under my right rib cage (where I had the pain). After this diagnosis, I changed my diet (I eliminated acidic foods) and my stomach settled down, even though I still had stomach discomfort off and on. I also continued to have pressure under my right rib cage. In December of 2014, I had a hysterectomy (I had multiple issues with my uterus). I recovered well and I felt like my GI tract was “back on track.” I was on a good routine where my system emptied at the same time every day and it was emptying what seemed to be a normal amount and it looked like “healthy” stool. I had also put on the weight I had lost from the previous GI attack. In February of 2015, after reading about the dangers of esophogitis, I decided to take the PPI my doctor prescribed in October of 2014. I then started having acid reflux—burning in my esophagus, burps that were stuck in my throat, etc. So, I returned to my GI doc who then told me to take 60 mg of Dexilant. I did so for a week and 4 days and then I developed severe abdominal pain. I immediately went off of the Dexilant and what ensued was two months of GI hell—I had cramping pain in stomach that was relieved somewhat with taking different laxatives to empty my system. I also was not able to eat most evenings because of the pain in my stomach. As a result, I lost 9 pounds. One doctor said that stopping the acid production in my stomach caused bad bacteria to grow/caused a leaky gut and this seems like a likely theory as different foods that I ate seemed to worsen the pain. Mid April I also ate salmon and asparagus one day and this resulted in awful pain in my stomach in the middle of the night and into the next day. I had to throw up to try and relieve the pain—what came out was full pieces of the asparagus that I had eaten. I had an abdominal MRI to rule out anything going on in my stomach. It came back negative. Now in May, the abdominal pain has stopped, but I have abdominal discomfort most evenings—my stomach feels full and bloated and my gas feels trapped. The pressure is not relieved until I go to the bathroom the next day. I am back to not being able to completely empty my bowels—there seems to always be a little more that I need to strain to get out (what comes out is normally flat and/or thin or a small “nugget” when the “extra” does come out). To rule out anything serious going on with my colon, I had a colonoscopy on May 4; I also had a repeat endoscopy. My colon looked great, but I still have a little scarring on my esophagus. I don’t know if the PPI incident reveals that I may have low stomach acid and not high stomach acidity. Or, did it exacerbate an existing condition with SIBO. Do I have motility issues where food is either moving too quickly or not quickly enough through my system? If so, what creates this problem? Is it possible my gallbladder is not working correctly and breaking down my food even though the abdominal MRI did not show anything? If you are able to lend any insight as to what my going on with my GI track, I would greatly appreciate it!

<start> Hi,Welcome to health care magic,I have read all your long query and understand the concern.Your main problem is stomach bloating and delayed emptying or fullness in stomach.This all symptoms could be due to dyspepsia, constipation,gastroenteritis,IBS orinflammatory bowel disease,parasitic infestation(giardiasis) etc.You should undergo certain routine blood investigations with urine and stool examination for R/M and ova or ultrasound of abdomen or upper GI scopy if required.Treatment is mainly depend on the underlying cause but symptomatic treatment can be given.You may require antibiotics (quinolones, antiprotozoals or amoxycillin derivatives)and anti helminthic (albendazole) with proton pump inhibitors and prebiotics and probiotics.You must consult your gastroenterologist for detailed medical history and thoroughly clinical examination and get it diagnosed first.Regards, <end>

What causes severe pain in lower right abdomen and under rib cage?

Hi. I am experiencing severe pain in my lower right abdomen and higher under rib cage on right side. I have recently been trying to recover from Lyme disease and mono. I have been told that my Lyme has become dormant, but the mono is still active. I was helping my husband move some heavy furniture about an hour ago and now the pain is unimaginable. I have had a hysterectomy, 2 years ago. They removed my uterus, cervix, both tubes, and right ovarie, and my appendix. They also had to remove a large amount of scar tissue and cysts, on nearly every aspect of my abdomen. I have severe endometriosis, and had scar tissue removal, and cysts removed from my abdomen, 4 separate times. I have been doctors so much in the past, I don't want to go if not necessary. Do you think the pain I am experiencing is something serious?

<start> Welcome to healthcare magic for your health concernsI am Dr Fahim, and I will be helping you with your query . . .      I have gone through your question and understood your concerns.

If such a patient walk into my clinic I start treatment with tab paracetamol 500mg 8hourly, tab Nospa 40mg 12hourly, tab metoclopramide 10mg 12hourly, cap omeprazole 40mg 24hourly. Mean while counselling and preparing patient for cholecystectomy, preferably laparascopic cholecystectomy. I hope my answer will help you. Please do rate my answer if you like itRegards <end>

What are the symptoms of supraumbilical hernia?

I have just been advised that i have a supraumbilical hernia just wanted to know what the symptoms for that is i have been feeling very hungry but then go to eat something and feel so full and about to explode i feel that i have a baby's head bulging from my stomach could this be due to the hernia

<start> Hi! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. The symptoms of a supra umbilical hernia might vary according to the size of the hernia. If it the size of the head baby bulging out of your abdomen, then yes, it is possible that you could get these kind of symptoms. I would advise you to get in touch with a general surgeon who after a clinical assessement would go for some routine investigations and advise you for some kind of hernioplasty ( a surgery for the hernia) either by open method, or by the more frequent laparoscopic hernioplasty for a faster recovery.I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef. <end>

What causes abdominal pain and discomfort?

Hello, About an hour or so after eating dinner (lobster roll) I experienced some abdominal pain and discomfort. The slight pain came in waves. It was more bloated feeling. My stomach tender to touch. I felt the need to go to the bathroom but found it difficult. However I was able to go a few times. I also took a Pepto-Bismal to help relieve the feeling. The pain/discomfort lasted about 5 hours..getting less and less as the time went on before finally subsiding. Any thoughts?

<start> A kind of fermentation inside the Gastro Intestinal Tract because of undigested food remaining in GIT and again eating before it digests fully. The food you took might also cause local reason such as infected, heavily oiled, spicy etc giving way to spasm inside guts.Now that it subsided, no concern. As a primary measure to my such patients I give little pinch of baking soda with warm water or warm lime water. In India common masses use carom seeds ( ajwain) by chewing with little salt and follow warm water drink or simply make decoction of carom seeds. This spice is found all over globe.Hope it helps you well. Pl chose your food well and do not eat before previous has digested. It's a common rule to stay fit at digestion. <end>

What causes severe pain in right side of back, stomach and lower abdomen?

I have been having severe pain in my lower back,now I m having sever pain in my right side of my back as well as the right side of my stomach and lower abdomen.I m also a woman who s 5 8 and about 285ish lbs. My medical history is unknown to me because I was adopted and don t have that info.I m a big eater but I have no desire to eat,no temptations for my normal cravings and have a slight feeling that I m going to vomit.I ve also had sever pain in my lower abdomen to the point that I was bent over in excrutiating pain and could not stand up and found it easier to lay on the floor to relieve some of the pain.And every month during my period I have alot of pain that feels like someone is trying to rip my insides out and that (for lack of a better way to say this) a huge blood clot needs to come out.At first I just thought it was because I wear tampons but I ve tried going all day without one and I still felt it.I ve even gone to my gyn to see if the iud was in place and she said it was good.But it has been a bit since then.I ve done a little bit of research about the iud that I had inplanted about 4 1/2 years ago. Some of the things that I read about other woman having sounded similar. I ve gone to doctors and they ve prescribed meds for me they worked maybe the 1st or 2nd day into them and then they didn t work anymore. I m at a loss as to what to do now.I m SO sick of going to the doctors ...they don t ever run any tests. What could this pain be or is it possibly more than one thing?Thank you

<start> Hi.Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.Read your history and understood that you have pain in the back and abdomen and in the lower abdomen during periods with passage of clots and have IUD.Your classical history of increase in pain on bending down looks to be due to prolapsed inter-vertebral disc.And the pain in the lower abdomen during menstruation looks to have Gynecological problem, may be due to Endometriosis. I would have advise you the following. - Get an MRI of the thoracic spine.CT scan of the whole abdomen. Investigations of the blood, urine and stool to rule out any other problems. Diagnostic Laparascopy. All these investigations will definitely help you to get a proper diagnosis and treatment. <end>

My medical history is unknown to me because I was adopted and don t have that info.I m a big eater but I have no desire to eat,no temptations for my normal cravings and have a slight feeling that I m going to vomit.I ve also had sever pain in my lower abdomen to the point that I was bent over in excrutiating pain and could not stand up and found it easier to lay on the floor to relieve some of the pain.And every month during my period I have alot of pain that feels like someone is trying to rip my insides out and that (for lack of a better way to say this) a huge blood clot needs to come out.At first I just thought it was because I wear tampons but I ve tried going all day without one and I still felt it.I ve even gone to my gyn to see if the iud was in place and she said it was good.But it has been a bit since then.I ve done a little bit of research about the iud that I had inplanted about 4 1/2 years ago. Some of the things that I read about other woman having sounded similar. I ve gone to doctors and they ve prescribed meds for me they worked maybe the 1st or 2nd day into them and then they didn t work anymore. I m at a loss as to what to do now.I m SO sick of going to the doctors ...they don t ever run any tests. What could this pain be or is it possibly more than one thing?Thank you

Suggest treatment for terrible cramping in stomach and back

In the last month I have been constantly nauseous. I have to make myself eat. I have lost 25 lbs. It all started one day when I was walking around having a good time at a casino (no alcohol). I had a terrible cramping feeling on my right side under my rib that went all the way through my back. I broke out into a sweat. This lasted about 30 minutes. I was weak and just felt like laying down. I had eggs and sausage and pancakes for breakfast that morning. I went to the restroom, and urinated an odd orangish color. I let it go until about a week later I noticed that i was passing undigested food through my bowels and having nausea. I felt terrible like I was going to die. I then went to the E.R. 3 times in 4 days. No answers. Now my pain is pretty much constant under the right rib. If I take a pain killer like hydrocodone it actually makes the area cramp more. So.....at one of my E.R. visits they checked my urine, and it showed high bilirubin level. A blood test did not show high bilirubin. I have belching (not normal for me), diarrhea, tongue coating is usually white or yellow, passing undigested foods, especially items like beans, yellow stool color, nausea, and bloating. I also have tenderness to the touch under the right rib area. Tests I have had.....CT no dye, upper abdominal ultrasound, Hida Scan with CCK, blood tests, urine tests. The only thing that ever showed anything it shouldn t was the urine have bilirubin. The rest of the tests are showing normal. The gallbladder hida scan showed ejection fraction of 59%. How am I having all the symptoms of gallbladder problems, and the tests aren t showing it. What does this sound like to you? Please give me a suggestion as to what else it may be, or other tests you feel would be needed to find the problem.

<start> Hi.Thanks for your query. Read and understood your history and query. You have nausea for 1 month, a long time to keep you from a proper diagnosis; lost weight, have cramping in the right side under the rib, that is referred to the back, sweating, orange urine in the beginning. This followed after 1 week with undigested food in the stools and nausea, 3 ER visits, Hydrocodone increases pain, Urine shows raised bilirubin, coated tongue, all other tests are normal,.All the history together shows that there may be a problem of hepatitis or cholangitis or Sphincter of Oddi dysfunction. Sometimes you need to undergo repeat tests as sometimes the tests may not show the problem. I would advise the following:Get the full liver profile including GGT, this may give a clue. Therapeutic trial with an antibiotic and metronidazole may help to get well. Avoid food rich in fat and oil. Get an opinion of hepatobiliary Specialist. <end>

Is 800 mg Advil dosage the right medicine for sharp shooting pain in the abdomen?

I have a sharp shooting pain in my abdomin right next to my right hip and a little down towards the groin area. It hurts to bend over, sit, walk and cough. I get some relief when lying down. I don t have a fever and my appetite is ok so far so I don t think appendex. It started Friday morning and at first I thought it was maybe my back radiating pain to the front but I have been taking 800 mg of advil every 4 hours but the pain doesn t ebb at all. I have not been lifting anything heavy so I don t think it is a hernia. Could it just be trapped gas or do I need to go to my doctors Monday if I can get in?

What causes abdominal pain and back pain?

All night last night I kept waking up to upper abdominal pain. I felt like I needed to burp or get sick. I vomited a few times but haven't since. Nothing seems to make it better or worse. I'll be fine for a little bit then all of a sudden my stomach starts to hurt again. it's causing my back to hurt right behind the abdominal pain. Any idea?

<start> Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. If I were your doctor, after a clinical assesment of your abdomen and back along with a general physical examination, I would advise you for some routine blood tests like a cbc,blood sugar,serum amylase and lipase, an LFT, blood urea, serum creatinine, an ECG and some radiological investigation like an ultrasound of whole abdomen, X ray chest and abdomen in upright posture, followed by a CT scan if need be. In the mean while, I would relieve your pain with some anti spasmodic and a proton pump inhibitor drug and advise you to abstain completely from alcohol and smoking in case you do. Further management would depend on the result of clinical assessement and the investigation reports.I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem.

Could there be a connection between lower abdominal pain and neuropathy?

I have been experience pain in my lower left abdomen since mid-December. I have seen numerous doctors, had several tests and have not received any help except to be passed on to other doctors. I recently saw a medical professional for another reason and she asked if anyone ever mentioned neuropathy ( I am a breast cancer survivor and I had a mastectomy of my left breast in April, 1998). Could there be a connection?

<start> Hi. Thanks for your query and an elucidate history. Since you had a breast surgery long ago, having neuropathy now is not possible due to this particular reason. Yes neuro problems like prolapsed disc in th lower thoracic region can cause pain in lower abdomen, but has a specific character like cutting or burning pain. Please go for MRI of the spine and CT scan of the abdomen to find the cause. <end>

How to cure chronic dull abdominal pain?

Dear doctor, I am a 35 year old male with chronic dull abdominal pain. I am skinny fat, 5 71/2 and 125 lbs. I have been suffering from this condition for the past 5-6 years. I have seen a doctor over this issue a few years back but nothing came out of it. He did all sorts of tests, no stomach or intestinal ulcer, no gas trouble, no appendicitis, no stomach or intestinal worm, no hepatitis or lacerations within stomach or intestines, no presence of helicobacter pylori . He did a barium test. Stool test and blood test came clean. At the end he gave me some medication related to stress (I think, based on the info on the leaflet found within the drug case) which i discarded as I found it amusing that he would treat me for stress when I was having trouble with my abdomen and stopped seeing him. Also ECG results came -ve. The dull pain doesn t affect me during daily life. Only when i press my belly i feel it. When I eat, after some time I feel my belly to be throbbing as if my heart is in my belly. I did my own research online and found my condition closest to Chronic functional abdominal pain. I don t suffer from bouts of diarrhea or vomiting or pass blood in stool. I don t feel any pain during bowel movement and I have one every day. I went without gluten once for a few months, it felt slightly better but the dull pain didn t end, i.e it has no effect whether I have gluten in my diet or not, i get the same throbbing sensation some time after I eat. Looking forward to your diagnosis

<start> Hello!Thank you for asking on HCM! I understand your concern. Your symptoms seem to be related to irritable bowel syndrome , which is a common intestinal condition characterized by abdominal pain and cramps; changes in bowel movements (diarrhea, constipation, or both); gassiness; bloating; nausea; and other symptoms. It is known that stress can worsen the situation. So the doctor who wanted to treat you for stress has not been wrong. This is not a life threatening condition. All the tests result normal, like in your situation. Much about the condition remains unknown or poorly understood; however, dietary changes( more fibers and avoid caffeine and spicy food), drugs ( like buscopan, antispastics) , and psychological treatment are often able to eliminate or substantially reduce its symptoms.Hope to have been helpful!Greetings! Dr. Iliri <end>

Suggest medication for lower abdominal pain in children

My 9 year old daughter has had diarrhea off and on for the past 4 days. Thursday evening she was vomiting too but hasn t thrown up since and has otherwise been eating and drinking normally. She does complain of intermittent pain in her lower abdomen and gas. No one else in the household is ill.

<start> It could be due to some infection from food eaten at school or outside the household which others did not consume. You have not mentioned whether these symptoms were accompanied by fever and other systemic symptoms. Also important is the color and consistency of the vomit and stool.Please keep her well hydrated, ensure that she passes urine as per her normal frequency and consult your nearest pediatrician who might prescribe a stool test and a couple of blood tests to check her electrolytes, etc. Following this a medication may be prescribed which could be an anti-diarrheal, anti-helminthic, etc based on the diagnosis. <end>

Is there any relation between abdominal pain and sinusitis?

Hello, I have been drawn down with sinusitis for the fourth time since December. Have hbp and have had a minor stroke. No damage done. I am having ab pains for about six months. My concern is the recurrent sinus issues. If this is a causal relationship what should I be looking at? I am sched for more blood work, full allergy work and a colonoscopy.

<start> HI.Thanks for your query.Noted the history of a 62 year old very active and fit person. There is probably no relationship between sinusitis and pain in abdomen. I think, the issues need different approaches:1 Chronic sinusitis: Needs a clinical evaluation ENT Endoscopy and CT scan to decide the cause, extent and the type of treatment.This may be medical and /or surgical. 2. The pain in abdomen is already under evaluation, Let see the results and then take a treatment. <end>

What causes lower abdominal pain with weight gain?

Hello sir I m 28 years old having 3 year old son after that I got through 2 medical obertions . now I am having menstrul cycle in proper order my last obertion was 3 month ago. But now my weight is increasing it is 57 earlier month it was 49 and also having pain in lower abdomen. Kindly help

<start> Well with successive abortions and connected medicines, changes in lifestyle and food habits may be culprit for bringing weight gain. It may also owe to hormonal changes.Best advise in my opinion is to avoid multiple abortions. Ayurveda medicine which is safe, diet with negative caloric intake, walks/ jogs are important for you to manage weight. Ayurveda medicines such as Arogyavardhini, Kanchnar guggul and Medohar guggul and Trfla in powder form or decoction are few suggestions which may be used even with it without hormonal disbalance. Selection should be left to Ayurveda doctor to be decided as per history and given conditions.Hope it enlightens you. But in no case use hormonal or toxic weight shedders in your own interest. <end>

What causes sharp stabbing and random twinges of pain in lower abdomen?

I have brief sharp stabbing pain and random twinges of pain on the right side lower part of my abdomen and I would like to know what the most likely causes are. They said there are no ovarian cysts on the right side what else could it be? The symptoms don t really fall under the stereotypical appendicitis category. Help?

<start> Hi. Read and understood that you have pain in the right lower abdomen. They have ruled out ovarian cysts and you don't feel it to be classical appendicitis. The causes can be :Colitis meaning inflation of the large bowel. Typhlitis of cecum Lymph node mass Irritable bowel syndrome Right Ureteric stone or so Atypical appendicitis due to odd position. It looks that you have undergone Ultrasonography, it does not show many of the problems I mentioned, hence yes need of contrast enhanced CT scan of the whole abdomen. And also needed are proper investigations of blood, urine and stool as guided by a general surgeon after clinical evaluation. This way a proper diagnosis will be made and a curative treatment done. <end>

Suggest treatment for severe upper abdominal cramps

I have been having upper abdominal cramping off and on. It started three days ago after I took an antibiotic to prevent infection after a dentist relieved an abcsessed tooth. I stopped the antibiotic after taking 4 doses(1 1/2 days worth) and still experiencing cramping for the last two days.

Consult a Doctor, preferably a General Surgeon for review, clinical evaluation and investigations as per the clinical findings. <end>

Suggest treatment for abdominal pain

I am still dealing with mid to lower abdominal pain which started in June 2012. I have seen doctors and had lots of tests, but so far no diagnosis. The pain was sporadic until December 2013. Then it became more intense - more painful and more often. Now it s almost constant. I have had issues with constipation for years due to my need to take narcotic medication for chronic pain (reflex sympathetic dystrophy, lymphedema, arthritis, etc.) In 12/13 my medication was changed and the pain in my abdomen became my new chronic pain, overtaking the other pain, which while still there, is not as prominent. My pain medication has been adjusted, but the pain remains. While I was being tested to find what was causing the stomach/abdomen pain I was diagnosed with leukemia (CCL) which apparently is not related. The question is what is causing my pain? Stress makes it worse, and while constipation may be an issue, the pain became worse after my colonoscopy & endoscopy. I have also had a CT Scan, PET Scan, intestine scan, can t have a MRI due to a spinal cord implant. So far these things have also been ruled out, IBS, hernia, no vaginal issues, gastritis. My doctor thinks it might be muscle spasms. I have been keeping a food diary and I have not found any discernible patterns or any clues. Could it be some sort of food or substance allergy? HELP

<start> Well, as your investigations are normal, nothing much to worry. Keep healthy eating habits. High fibre diet, plenty of liquids, avoid constipation, keep relaxed, probably you will get relief. <end>

Yes, a family relative has a prostate removal 10 days ago. Then yesterday the hospital found a nick in his intestines, and now he has major infection in his abdominal area. They had to do major surgery again. How long will it take him to recover? Thanks!!

Suggest treatment for lower abdominal cramps and leg cramps

I am having leg cramps all the way into my toes. I am also having cramps in my ruq abdomen and lower abdomen area. They are related, because it all started friday 3 days ago. They are not constant, they are intermittent mostly at night or positional for my abdomen. Could it be low potassium? I have had low potassium before, but I have been eating bananas. Should I call my doctor for a blood test?

<start> Hi! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. It is unlikely to have abdominal cramps due to low potassium. If I were your doctor, I would advise to avoid eating from outside if you do to prevent GI infections creeping in from most of these unhygienically prepared food items. I would also advise you to go for a roughage rich diet along with plenty of liquids as improper hydration could also give rise to the leg cramps. However, in case the intensity and frequency of these increase, I would advise you to take appointment with an internist and get yourself clinically assessed along with any related investigations for a proper management. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef. <end>

This is a rotten service--paying to get an answer. You should be ashamed of yourselves!

<start> Hello!Thank you for your question on HCM! It seems to be a muscular contraction, probably caused by a wrong movement. I don't think that there is anything to worry about. I would advise you to consult your GP to exclude any other causes or abnormal signs during physical examination. I would recommend acetaminophen or ibuprofen for some days to help with your pain. If the pain persists an abdominal ultrasound would be necessary to exclude different abdominal disorders. Hope to have been helpful!Greetings! Dr. Iliri <end>
