Related to acidity and indigestion
I have been experiencing indigestion alternate constipation/ diarrhea and left side abdominal discomfort since last 2 months. I took medicines. Symptoms subside but again it appears. What should I do ? I have observed after taking Pan-D left side abdominal discomfort goes away. I got abdomen ultrasound done. Everything was normal. What could be the issue? Sometime I felt as if I noticed blood. But got FOBT done. It came out normal. Also proctoscopy was done. It was also normal. My GI specialist said it could Be IBS also.

Hello,
Your reports being normal is reassuring. The alternating constipation/diarrhea with abdominal discomfort, improving with Pan-D, is commonly seen in Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). It is not dangerous but can be recurrent.
✅ Tips: Eat on time, avoid spicy/oily food, manage stress, stay hydrated, and include fiber if constipation is more.
✅ Medicines like PPIs, antispasmodics, and probiotics (as advised by your doctor) often help.
For Detailed Assessment Please Consult.

Hi. It seems you need a thorough evaluation for the symptoms you are experiencing. IBS could very well be a possibility like how the GI specialist has mentioned. I need to get a detailed history to be able to arrive at a diagnosis. Do you experience stress and anxiety ? Have you had your thyroid function tested ? Please book an appointment with me through the app.
I hope you get well soon.
