I'm experiencing frequent loose stools, and it seems like my body is just getting rid of everything I eat. Should I be worried about this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Frequent passing of loose stools can be a sign of diarrhea. You can try taking Electral or ORS solution to prevent dehydration. Additionally, you can take Imodium to help control the frequency of bowel movements. If the symptoms persist, it's important to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm taking Hepamerz tablets to help with my digestion, but I've been feeling bloated and uncomfortable in my stomach ever since. Do you have any suggestions for a different medication that might work better for me?
Its possible that Hepamerz is causing the bloating and discomfort. You might want to try digestive aids like *Dysflatyl* or *Spasmocanulase*, which can help with bloating. However, it's a good idea to consult your doctor to ensure it's the right choice for you.

I'm really concerned about this report I got that mentions "fatty liver" and says something about "parenchymal echotexture is heterogeneous." Could you explain what these terms mean and if they're something I should be worried about? I'm feeling pretty anxious about it and just need a bit of clarity on how serious this might be.
The medical term "fatty liver and parenchymal echotexture is heterogeneous" indicates that your liver has accumulated excess fat and its tissue structure appears irregular and non-uniform on ultrasound imaging, which may suggest a condition like hepatic steatosis or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); consult a hepatologist or gastroenterologist to discuss the diagnosis, potential causes, and appropriate treatment plan.

My ultrasound showed a thickened gallbladder wall with a 15mm polyp and a few small calculi. The doctor prescribed antibiotic drips twice a day for infection, but my stomach feels bloated like there's air inside. Is this serious? Can it be treated with just meds or will I need surgery?
It's important to follow up with your doctor to discuss your concerns and the treatment plan, as they will have the most accurate information about your specific situation. While a thickened gallbladder wall, a 15mm polyp, and small calculi (gallstones) are concerning, they don't necessarily mean immediate surgery is needed. The 15mm polyp does increase the risk of malignancy, and polyps larger than 10mm are often recommended for removal. Your doctor's decision about treatment will depend on several factors, including the size and type of polyp, the presence of gallstones, and whether you are experiencing symptoms
