Hi Doctor, I am experiencing severe constipation and am unable to pass stool despite repeated attempts. It feels like the stool is stuck right at the opening of my anus, and I am experiencing significant pain in the anal area along with constant pressure in my lower abdomen. I last passed stool on Friday, and although I am still able to pass gas, I am unable to pass the stool. Could you please advise me on what I should do and whether I need to come in for an urgent consultation?
For the past 3 weeks, I have been suffering from severe abdominal pain and gas problems. It initially started one day after I stayed without eating all morning and then had a meal at around 4 PM. At that time, I felt gas moving throughout my abdomen. The problem was worse at night, and after eating, I experienced pain on the right side of my abdomen.
Now, the pain on the right side of my abdomen feels like a stabbing pain, and there is a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen. A few days ago, the pain was so severe that I was even having difficulty walking. I can walk normally now, but the severe internal abdominal pain has not improved.
The pain is mainly on the right side of the abdomen, starting around the right side of the navel and extending toward the lower right abdomen, where I feel a sense of heaviness. My bowel movements are normal and soft, and I do not have constipation.
There is also a burning sensation and pain on the right side of my abdomen. My usg report normal.
After every meal my tummy bloats. Acidity form so many food items. Heart burning acidity. And the bowel movement is incomplete. Going twice or thrice in a day and incomplete.
Bro, I have Hashimoto’s, and whenever I eat outside food, even occasionally, I tend to develop symptoms that feel like an infection. My family gastroenterologist usually prescribes Rifagut 400 mg along with Albiox-Pre and a probiotic tablet.
I ate outside food when I went to Chennai two days ago, and now I’m having similar symptoms. What should I do now? Is there any gastroenterologist available at Sun Clinic today?
Hello Doctor,
I have had a fever and frequent bowel movements for the last 5 days.
Stool: Frequent urge to go, but the stool is not watery (it is normal/semi-formed)
Fever: Persistent; returns after Dolo 650 wears off.
Medicines taken: Dolo 650 and Loperamide (neither has resolved the problem).
Please advise on the right treatment
