Health Q&A
Intense low abdomen pain
I have been experiencing severe lower abdominal/pelvic pain extending from left to right and into my lower back, occurring intermittently about 2–3 times a month for nearly a year. There is no clear association with my periods or bowel movements, although it occasionally seems to start after a bowel movement. My bowel movements are generally normal, with mild occasional constipation, but I do experience burning around the anus after passing stool. Two recent abdominal ultrasounds were normal, and blood tests six months ago were also normal except for an elevated ESR of 56. I am not sexually active, so pregnancy is not a concern. I am worried about bowel or rectal cancer, although I have no family history and have not noticed any blood in my stool. However, hearing about more young people being diagnosed has made me increasingly concerned.
Constipation
Struggling with severe constipation for the past one month.having 2.5ltrs fluid cremaffin 15ml both in night and early morning.The stool became very hard and got stuck in the Anus and forced to do have enema . Within 2 weeks 4 enemas was given. Last week underwent a spine surgery. Before the surgery I was given enema .

No bowl movement on Sunday and Monday even though continuing with Cremaffin . But no use even after Dulcoflex appostree and forced to have enema yesterday again. Daily I am taking isab.husk also Please advise me
Loose motion, Bloating, Heavy breathing
2months ago, I developed acute diarrhoea symptoms ,was taking too much caffeine,diet soda . Initially, I experienced frequent loose stools, significant bloating, excessive gas, abdominal heaviness, and a white-coated tongue. During the course of the illness, I also developed chest heaviness, a sensation of rapid/heavy breathing. Every test was normal. I was treated by gastroenterologist with rifamaxin 550 and vsl 3 and vonograss 20. The white tongue resolved completely, diarrhea improved substantially but again happening since 3 days. Somedays i feel incomplete evacuation with occasional soft stools rather than watery diarrhea. My main ongoing symptoms are persistent abdominal bloating with marked tight abdominal distension, heaviness/fullness throughout the day, breathing discomfort that appears to correlate with abdominal bloating and loose motion once in while. Currently i am on low fodmap diet. Stool report, ultrasound and full body checkup all are fine.
H - pylori positive
I have been tested positive for H pylori bacteria and my doctor has prescribed me some medicine however I am afraid to take medicine or antibiotics . FYI- last year for my gastric issue in was prescribed ofloxacin +meftal forte which caused me ADR resulting in tinnitus and it hasn't gone yet and my body is vulnerable to take any antibiotics so I would need some suggestions as to how I need to proceed further on this without damaging my hearing in ear.
