I'm really concerned about this problem I've been having for the last six months. Every time I press on my lower abdomen, it feels like my intestines are being pushed out, and it hurts. After I eat, there's this groaning pain in my stomach and the whole area feels really uncomfortable. I've also been dealing with a lot of indigestion. Could you help me understand what's going on and what kind of treatment I should look into?

try eating several small meals instead of three large ones whenever you can...Avoid foods that irritate your stomach, especially those that are spicy, acidic, fried or fatty... avoid coffee,tea etc... Avoid stress,consider calming activities, such as meditation, yoga etc...sleep with head raised position and have dinner at least 2 hours before sleep..Increasing your fiber intake will help promote soft and bulky stool and may relive your symptoms...Foods that are fiber-rich include beans, fruits, whole grains, beans and vegetables

View allI was just diagnosed with a hiatus hernia and I'm a bit worried - can this be managed with meds or will I need surgery? I'm not sure how serious it is and what the best treatment options are
A hiatal hernia is a condition where a part of the stomach pushes up into the chest through an opening in the diaphragm. While many people with hiatal hernias don't experience symptoms and don't need treatment, others may experience symptoms like heartburn or acid reflux that can be managed with lifestyle changes and medications. In some cases, especially with large or symptomatic hernias, surgery may be needed to repair the hernia

I've been having some stomach pain and my doctor did an endoscopy. He mentioned something about an h pylari or h capitalliary infection. I'm on this Sompraz hp kit now, but since I started taking it, I've been having really loose stools and feel like I can't control it. Is this normal? What should I do?
Given the blood groups you mentioned: - Mother (O+) - Father (B+) - Child (A+) _It is theoretically possible_ for the child to have the A+ blood group, as the ABO blood group system is controlled by multiple genes. However, it's essential to explore this further. To discuss this topic, consider consulting: 1. *Geneticist*: A specialist in genetics and heredity. 2. *Medical Geneticist*: A medical doctor specializing in genetics and genomics. Regarding DNA testing, you can ask for a: 1. *Parentage Test*: Also known as a Paternity Test or DNA Paternity Test. 2. *DNA Profiling*: A test that analyzes specific DNA markers to determine biological relationships. Some common DNA tests used for parentage testing include: 1. *Short Tandem Repeat (STR) Testing*: Analyzes specific DNA markers. 2. *Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Testing*: Amplifies specific DNA sequences. Before proceeding, consider the emotional implications of DNA testing and discuss them with your family and a genetic counselor if needed.

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.
