How can I clear my bowels every morning?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Drinking plenty of water and staying hydrated is a great way to regulate digestion. People who support a water flush for colon cleansing recommend drinking six to eight glasses of lukewarm water per day. Also try eating plenty of foods high in fiber & water content. This includes fruits and vegetables like watermelons, tomatoes, lettuce, and celery.

View allI'm experiencing a clear, sticky discharge from my anus, and it's got a pretty bad smell. I've also had loose stools for months. What could be causing this?
the transparent, sticky, and foul-smelling anal discharge, accompanied by loose stools for several months, could be caused by gastrointestinal infection, anal fistula or abscess, hemorrhoids, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), malabsorption, or dietary factors, and it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist or proctologist for a thorough examination and diagnosis.

I'm really struggling with constipation and I've heard Isabgol might help. But I'm not sure how long I need to take it to see real results. Are we talking a few weeks, or could it take several months or even a year to completely get rid of the problem?
Isabgol (psyllium husk) can help alleviate constipation symptoms within 2-7 days, but for optimal results and to establish regular bowel habits, it's recommended to take isabgol consistently for at least 2-3 months, and ideally, as a long-term dietary supplement to support digestive health, under the guidance of a healthcare professional.

I'm really worried about my friend. They're dealing with a lot of vomiting and loose motion. They've been given some medicine but it doesnt seem to be helping much. Is there any more effective medicine that you would suggest?
It sounds like your friend is dealing with a severe stomach issue. If the prescribed medicines aren't working, it's important for them to revisit their doctor, as it could be a sign of an underlying infection or condition that requires a different approach. In some cases, probiotics or a more specific treatment might be needed.
