I'm really worried because I haven't been able to have a bowel movement in four days. It's like the liquid stuff will come out, but none of the solid things. I even tried taking medication like Dulco, but it's just not working. What should I do?

View allI'm Rajesh and I've been having this abdominal pain on the left side of my belly button for about 4 years now. I did a colonoscopy and endoscopy and they told me it's IBS. But just last week, I had an ultrasound and they found a 3mm gallbladder polyp. I'm really worried about it and it's making it hard for me to focus on work. Is this something dangerous? What should I do?
A 3mm gallbladder polyp is generally not dangerous, but regular monitoring is important. No immediate treatment is typically required, but keep an eye on any changes in symptoms. Managing IBS and discussing your stress with your doctor can help improve your overall well-being.

I've been dealing with some pretty persistent acid reflux for a few months now, and I've noticed blood in my stool occasionally. I consulted a doctor, who said it wasn't a big deal and that an endoscopy or colonoscopy isn't necessary right now. I'm curious, though, about what might be causing these symptoms. Could this really be something non-serious? Should I still consider getting an endoscopy to make sure everything's okay?
Despite your doctor's reassurance, it's essential to investigate the causes of your acid reflux and intermittent bloody stools, which could be related to conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gastritis, ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or even colorectal cancer; considering your symptoms, it's recommended to seek a second opinion and consider undergoing an endoscopy or colonoscopy to rule out any underlying serious conditions and determine the best course of treatment.

I've been told I have multiple small gallstones of different sizes. Can Ayurvedic medicine really dissolve them completely so I won't need surgery? I'm worried about the stones causing problems later if they don't go away
Oral dissolution therapy. Ursodiol link (Actigall) and chenodiol link (Chenix) are medicines that contain bile acids that can break up gallstones. These medicines work best to break up small cholesterol stones. You may need months or years of treatment to break up all stones.
