I've been dealing with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and I'm feeling pretty confused about how to find the right treatment. Is IBS something that can actually be treated or am I likely to struggle with this long-term? I'm open to trying out different treatments, whether it's allopathic, homeopathic, or Ayurveda, but I just don't know where to start. Any advice on what might be the best route to take?

View allI've been dealing with this issue for a couple of days now. I saw a doctor who prescribed me Devon and Benalgis, one each daily, but I'm still having the same problem. Plus, my blood pressure was pretty low at that time, like 8070. The burning sensation comes and goes, it's not constant throughout the day. Any ideas on what else might be going on or what I should do next?

Steroid injections or sprays 2. Antibiotics (if bacterial infection is suspected) 3. Laser treatment Additionally, try: 1. Saltwater gargles 2. Tongue exercises 3. Avoiding irritants (e.g., spicy food, tobacco) Work with your ENT specialist to determine the best course of treatment.

I recently did an SGPT test, and the value came back as 64. My SGOT and GGT reports are normal, though. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it okay?
An SGPT level of 64 is slightly elevated, which may indicate some liver inflammation or damage. To help lower your SGPT levels, you can consider taking Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). Additionally, it is important to avoid alcohol, maintain a healthy weight, and follow a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables. Regular exercise can also help improve liver health.

I'm wondering why my stool is always loose in the morning. Each day I drink a lot of water right after I wake up, and then have a cup of tea which really makes me want to go to the toilet. I usually drink water before sitting on the toilet to pass stool. Could all this be the reason for my loose stools? What can I do to have a more normal, smooth, and long stool thats easier to pass?
Drinking lots of water, especially on an empty stomach, and consuming tea in the morning may contribute to loose stools; to achieve normal, smooth, and well-formed stools, try the following: drink water in moderation, avoid drinking water immediately before passing stools, eat a balanced breakfast to help firm up stools, incorporate fiber-rich foods (fruits, vegetables, whole grains), exercise regularly, and consider reducing or avoiding morning tea or switching to herbal tea to minimize caffeine's laxative effect.
