I'm a 23-year-old guy dealing with hypothyroidism and currently taking 100mcg tablets. Last month I had appendicitis surgery, and now I'm struggling with gastric issues. On top of that, I'm taking vitamin D supplements for a deficiency and have persistent left knee joint pain. My digestion is also messed up passing stools is painful and irritating. All these health issues are making me really depressed. Which specialist should I see for all this?

View allMy sister has been struggling with frequent bowel movements, going to the bathroom countless times a day but only passing watery liquid stool. She feels exhausted all the time and sometimes has stomach pain. She had knee surgery last year could that be related? What might be causing this and what steps should we take next?
Frequent watery stool needs stool tests and gastro consult—could be infection, IBS, or IBD.

I've been having slight chest pain on both sides for about a month, along with flank pain, and now abdominal pain on both sides for 56 days. My ultrasound showed acalculous cholecystitis, pancreatitis, and a 3mm kidney stone on the right side. Endoscopy revealed gastritis too. Is there any way to treat cholecystitis without stones? I really don't want to go through surgery.

I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed with my recent diagnosis from Apollo Hospital. They found 5 ulcers in my digestive tract and said I have IBD, specifically Crohn's disease, along with cough variant asthma. They did a colonoscopy, abdomen CT scan, fecal test, and a bunch of blood tests. Now I'm on medication for IBD and Crohns, and theyve given me an inhaler for the cough. Im a bit worriedshould I expect any side effects from the meds, and how can I manage these conditions effectively on a daily basis? Any advice on diet or lifestyle adjustments would be really helpful.
The diagnosis of Crohn's disease, a type of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), and cough variant asthma is based on comprehensive testing, and the prescribed medications, likely including aminosalicylates, immunomodulators, or biologics for Crohn's, and bronchodilators or corticosteroids for asthma, aim to manage symptoms, induce remission, and prevent complications.
