I've been having some issues with stomach and stool cleaning for about a week now. I went to the hospital and the doctor recommended a syrup called Gudlax Plus. Do you think this syrup is the right choice for me, and when would be the best time to take it?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Gudlax Plus syrup, containing a combination of liquid paraffin, methylpolysiloxane, and magnesium hydroxide, is commonly used to treat constipation and promote bowel regularity; take 1-2 tablespoons of Gudlax Plus syrup at bedtime or as directed by your doctor, with a full glass of water, to help soften and clear stool, and ensure adequate hydration to facilitate its effectiveness.

View allI recently had an ultrasound without any particular reason and it showed I have a gallstone that's 16mm. The thing is, I'm not having any pain or issues right now. Should I be thinking about removing my gallbladder? I'm just not sure what the best course of action is.

I'm dealing with this stomach pain that's been going on for about 3 months now. It's on the left side of my tummy, near my hip. The worst part is, my tummy starts rumbling at night, keeping me awake. What could be causing this, and do you have any advice on what I should do?
It sounds like you're experiencing discomfort in your left lower abdomen, which could be due to various causes such as digestive issues, gas, or even something like an ovarian cyst. It's important to get it checked by a doctor to pinpoint the exact cause and receive the right treatment, especially since it's been ongoing for a few months.

My wife has been dealing with water-like loose motions since yesterday. She tried pudin hara last night, which helped her sleep, but this morning, she's been to the loo four more times. She's been drinking Electrol to stay hydrated. Theres no pain, but should we be doing something more?
-It sounds like your wife is dealing with a mild case of diarrhea, but since she's staying hydrated with Electrol and doesn't have pain, she should hopefully recover soon. If it continues for more than 48 hours, it might be a good idea to consult a doctor
