I've been dealing with abdominal adhesions and partial bowel obstruction, and it's causing a lot of gas and nausea. My doctor said surgery isn't needed right now, but I'm worried what else can I do to manage these symptoms?

While your doctor has ruled out immediate surgery, you can still manage the symptoms of your abdominal adhesions and partial bowel obstruction. Focus on dietary changes, hydration, and potentially some over-the-counter remedies to relieve gas and nausea. Regular exercise and gentle abdominal massages can also be helpful

I haven't been able to pass stool for four days and it's getting really painful. Yesterday, I realized it's become too hard and won't pass through my rectum. I tried using a suppository but it didn't help, then I had some cremafin syrup and now only a tiny, hard stool comes out with a lot of pain and water. It's unbearable and I'm really struggling. I've never dealt with anything like this before. I'm considering going to the hospital for an enema but I'm also on my period, so I'm kind of worried about that too. Could you give me some advice on what I should do?

Given your severe constipation, painful bowel movements, and failure of suppositories and Cremafin syrup, consider visiting the hospital for further treatment, despite being on your period, as the medical staff can take necessary precautions; enema or other medical interventions like manual removal of stool or prescription medications may be necessary to relieve your symptoms; meanwhile, stay hydrated, apply warm compresses to your abdomen, and avoid straining during bowel movements to minimize discomfort.

I've had jaundice before, but I'm doing well now. I'm thinking about using Liv 52 as a regular detox thing. How many Liv 52 tablets should I take a day? And is there a limit on how long I can use it without worrying?

For detoxification purposes, you can take 2 tablets of Liv 52 twice a day after meals. It is generally safe to use Liv 52 for a prolonged period of time as it is a natural hepatoprotective supplement. However, if you have any concerns or experience any unusual symptoms, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional.

Can you tell me if there's a surgery to stop bile from flowing into the stomach? I've been having issues and want to know what options are out there

Yes, there are surgical options to address bile reflux and prevent bile from flowing into the stomach. These procedures typically involve diverting the bile flow or strengthening the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) to prevent it from leaking bile.
