I was cooking and noticed some tiny plastic bits in the food, which I removed right away. Now I'm a bit worriedwhat if I swallowed some by accident? Could something like that be harmful, even if it's a really tiny amount?

It's natural to worry, but if the plastic bits were very small and you removed most of them, there's likely no need for concern. Tiny, negligible amounts of plastic typically pass through the digestive system without causing harm. If you feel any discomfort or symptoms, consult a doctor for reassurance.

View allI've been having some issues since my C-section delivery about 10 days ago. I've noticed a mild constipation problem, but today was kind of alarming. I had stool twice, and the first one was a bit painful, but the second time, a few hours later, I noticed blood in my stool. My stool still feels pretty hard, and I'm really concerned about what's going on. Any advice on how to fix this?

I'm feeling something unusual with my stomach. My upper abdomen feels pretty hard, and it's not painful, but when I eat, it gets really tight and sticks out. What's weird is that my lower abdomen is soft and flat. What could be going on here?
gas, indigestion, food sensitivities, or digestive conditions like IBS. It's important to track your diet, monitor for patterns, and consider lifestyle adjustments such as eating smaller meals, staying hydrated, and possibly taking probiotics. If symptoms persist or worsen, seeing a healthcare provider will help determine the exact cause

I've been noticing something strange with my stomach lately. It moves up and down kind of like a heartbeat but not the usual rhythm you get from breathing. After I eat, it feels like it's more intense, almost like some veins are gathering and feel heavy. This movement continues all day, usually at a normal pace. At first, I thought it was my actual heartbeat, but even when my pulse is 72 bpm, the movement doesn't stop. I looked it up online, and it mentioned something about an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Could that be what I'm experiencing?
A CT abdomen is advised ,follow up with the reports...
