View allHow much papaya should I eat daily to meet my fiber needs and what's the best time to have it for constipation relief I recently had fistula surgery and want to avoid dietary changes can you suggest what works
To meet your fiber needs and potentially aid with constipation after fistula surgery, consuming a portion of papaya daily, such as a small bowl of ripe papaya, can be beneficial. The best time to consume it is likely in the morning or after dinner to help with digestion and regulate bowel movements. Since you're trying to avoid dietary changes, focusing on incorporating papaya into your existing diet is a good approach

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with stomach problems for the last two months, like cramps, abdominal pain, weird motions, mild fever, red eyes, and headaches. I first saw one gastro doctor who thought it was an infection and gave me some medications like Zifi, Satrogyl, and Nizonide. He wanted me to do a bunch of tests like colonoscopy, endoscopy, biopsy, CT scans, and blood tests. I went to another senior gastro in Noida, and he said it's IBS and no need for all those tests. But then after his 10-day course, the issues came back, and he also blamed another infection. Now, it's been about 20 days since my stomach has been better, and I'm taking Menoctyl, Enzar Forte, and Vizylac. What's really bothering me is that I've lost 8-9 kg of weight despite eating enough lately, and my weight isn't going up. Is this normal? Should I stick with the same gastro since I'm finally feeling some relief? The weight loss is freaking me out a bit.
