I've been having a problem where I need to go to the washroom soon after I eat breakfast or lunch, usually within about 20 minutes. It's becoming a big issue for me, and I'm just not sure what to do about it. Could you suggest any solutions or advice on what might be causing this?

Identify and avoid foods that may be causing this issue, such as spicy foods, fatty foods, or dairy.If you're not getting enough fiber, gradually add high-fiber foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to your diet. Fiber can help regulate bowel movements.

My partner has had constant belching, bloating, and loose motions since yesterday gone to the bathroom over 12 times already. He can't leave the house because he's recovering from sepsis surgery. Is there any way to get a doctor to come to our place? What could be causing this?

Your partner's symptoms of constant belching, bloating, and loose motions, particularly the frequency of bathroom visits (over 12 times in a day), warrant seeking medical attention. These symptoms could indicate a variety of conditions, including Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), food poisoning, or other infections. A doctor can properly diagnose the cause and recommend appropriate treatment.
