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.

My mom had a heart attack in mid-March and had to get an angioplasty. Right after she came home from the hospital, she's been having constant diarrhea. She's really scared to eat anything because of it. She's dealing with both high blood pressure and diabetes. Do you have any idea what's causing this and how we can help stop the diarrhea?
In this case, it is important to consult with her doctor to rule out any other underlying causes. To help stop the loose motions, she can take a medication called Loperamide (Imodium) 2mg after each loose stool, up to a maximum of 16mg per day. Additionally, she can try taking a probiotic supplement like Saccharomyces boulardii to help restore the balance of good bacteria in her gut. It is also important for her to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids and to eat small, bland meals throughout the day. If the loose motions persist, her doctor may need to adjust her medications or investigate further

My belly button pain is getting worse and I can't stretch or bend without discomfort. I haven't had any surgeries and usually eat healthy with no junk food. What could be causing this sudden pain around just my belly button area?
Could be hernia, umbilical granuloma, or muscle strain—get abdominal USG and consult a general surgeon.
