I've been dealing with stomach flu and have been on medication like rcifax 50, enbios, and rablet for about a week. I'm still having loose stools along with bloating and gas. How much longer do you think it'll take to feel better? And what kind of food should I be eating to speed up the recovery?

It can take around 1-2 weeks to fully recover from stomach flu. In addition to the medications you are already taking, you can also consider taking probiotics like Enterogermina to help restore the balance of good bacteria in your gut. For faster recovery, you should focus on eating bland and easily digestible foods such as bananas, rice, applesauce, toast (BRAT diet), boiled potatoes, clear broths, and drinking plenty of fluids like water, herbal teas, and electrolyte-rich drinks. Avoid spicy, fatty, and dairy-rich foods until your symptoms improve.

View allI'm a mom to a 23-day-old baby and was diagnosed with gallbladder stones during my 8th month of pregnancy. Today I'm feeling pain in my upper abdomen again. The stone size is 9mm. Is it safe for me to take drotin tablets right now? I can't consider surgery at this stage with such a small baby
Drotin is generally safe post-pregnancy but consult your OB; manage diet and hydration, and avoid surgery if pain is mild.

I've been feeling this cramping-like pain on the right side of my abdomen, and my doctor advised I get an ultrasound and some blood work done, including an LFT. The results came back, and everything looks normal, even my liver size. But then it says I've got a Grade 3 fatty liver. Is it normal to have such a thing when the other tests are fine? How common is this, and what should I be doing about it? Could there be some underlying serious issue I should be worried about?

I've noticed that after just a couple of drinks, my eyes get really red, I get a headache, feel nauseous, and my stomach feels extremely tight and full. I'm also having trouble breathing, and my heartbeat gets really fast. This has been happening for about a month, even though I stopped drinking alcohol. I've tried to have a drink a couple of times since then, but the same problem occurs. This never happened before, and I've been drinking for years. I got a body check-up two months ago, and everything was normal. What could be going on with me, and should I be concerned?
avoid taking alcohol
