Question 1

I'm experiencing belching on an empty stomach and feeling nauseous really early in the morning, around 4 a.m., usually when I'm sleeping. Plus, I've been having loose stools about once a week, though they're not super liquidy. Seven months back, I had an endoscopy that showed gastritis in my stomach's antrum and bile stasis, but it wasnt H. pylori. An ultrasound also showed multiple small peripheral follicles in both ovaries. I'm really scared that this could be something serious, like cancer. Can you help me figure out if I should be worried?

Accepted Answer

cancer is highly unlikely from your symptoms. drink good amount of water

Question 2

I'm noticing this small swelling on my belly button that's been there for about a month now. Lately, my stomach's felt kind of bloated and I've been having some gas issues. Also, I feel kind of uneasy after eating meals. Should I be concerned about this, and what might be causing it?

Accepted Answer

The persistent swelling around your belly button, accompanied by bloating, gas issues, and discomfort after meals, may indicate a possible umbilical hernia, intestinal obstruction, or gastrointestinal issue such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS); consult a general surgeon or gastroenterologist for a thorough examination

Question 3

I've been having this burning pain at my anus when I sit, and it gets worse after I pass stools. This has been going on for about two weeks now, and I'm really starting to get worried. What could be causing this? Should I be concerned about any specific conditions? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Accepted Answer

Cannot be diagnosed without examining the area. Possible anal fissure, or hemorrhoids.

I'm dealing with constipation that's causing bleeding in that area, and it's really painful. Sometimes, it even swells up, making it uncomfortable to sit. I'm wondering how I can manage this situation at home and if there are any remedies to get rid of a skin tag or pile naturally. Any advice?
