Gastroenterology

Since few days my sister was having slight pain in the anus opening. Now it looks like swelling or some skin is bulging out maybe. There is no constipation. What should be done?

Hello all, I had gotten an ultrasound abdomen scan during the end of February to check for inguinal hernia. During the scan, there was no hernia detected but my common bile duct was dilated to 8.6mm. My primary care physician (I am in the United States now) did a liver function test and that was normal.. He said no need to worry about anything since lft is normal. However, I've been worrying If it could be something serious like pancreatic cancer or bile duct cancer. I did not have any pain in my upper abdomen region before the scan, but I feel like I have some vague pain ever since I got the scan. I am 28 years old and I still have my gallbladder. Should I be worrying about this or is it just a benign finding? Thank you

Respected sir, I am aged 69 yrs. For last 2 to 3 days suddenly  I am having nausea, vomiting 5 times alongwith loose motion 3 times. No urge to eat food.

Hello, does clopitab cause acid reflux and gas in generally? For 75mg dosage. If yes, are there any antiplatelet which doesn't cause such issue?

I am a vegetarian, i eat fish during winter months. So in on 25th Jan i ate fried fish late night. Next day i felt my stools are not passing and felt discomfort. I had water and took isabgol. It got clear but at a slow pace. I didn't face any problem for 10 days. After this i had rajma and same thing happened again. I again had isabgol and duphalac syrup 10ml and it got clear again. Sometimes it happens with milk or maida or paneer, to be honest i am not able to track it. I do not have pain or any acidity. I just feel discomfort and pressure in my lower abdomen and when i pass stools i feel better. It's not that i am constipated completely. I pass stools everyday but sometimes i feel i need to pass more, like i am not satisfied. And when i am not able to pass stools properly i feel gassy whole day. I am not able to understand if this is constipation or IBS-c.. Should i take Normaxin rt? is there any permanent cure for this? it's affected my personal and social life. please help.

What is the Difference between IBS-c and Occasional Constipation? Sometimes i feel my bowels are not getting empty properly and i feel gassy because of that. But i don't have any pain. I just have lower abdomen pressure due to incomplete bowels. Is it IBS-c or Occasional constipation?

I am always feeling tired and full,got no appetite plus cramps around my abdomen though I am not on my periods.What do you think is my problem?

Can i take Normaxin rt for occasional constipation and gassy feeling. I sometimes feel my bowels are not getting empty.
