I've been really constipated and my USG showed gaseous distension in the stomach are there any treatments besides medicines to get rid of the gas? Like, could surgery or something else help? It's pretty urgent and I'm not sure what to do
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For gaseous distension and constipation, lifestyle changes like increasing fiber intake, hydration, and regular exercise can help. Surgery is rarely needed unless there’s a structural issue causing the gas retention.

View allI'm really worried about my wife. She's been dealing with this pain on the right side of her chest for a couple of weeks now. We had an ultrasound and X-ray done, and the doctor mentioned something about liver enlargement and fluid in her lower lungs. The reports also showed WBC lymphocytes at 20 and neutrophils at 76, plus there's an infection in her urine. We've tried different medications, but her pain hasn't gotten much better. What should we do for treatment? Any advice would be really appreciated.
its better to take antibiotics

I'm experiencing vomiting every 34 days when I brush my teeth. This has been happening for about 34 weeks now. At first, the vomit was yellow, and I assumed it might be related to a bile digestion issue, so I didn't see a doctor. However, more recently, it's been coming out white with a really strong sour taste. Is this something common with bile problems, or could it be something else?

I've been experiencing some sharp pain that starts at my belly button and shoots down towards my legs, especially after I clean or put pressure on my belly button. It's so severe that I often need to take the day off to rest. The pain seems to stretch from my navel down to my inner legs and even to my feet. Any idea what might be causing this? It's really starting to worry me.
The sharp pain from your belly button radiating to both legs, triggered by cleaning, pressing, or applying pressure, may indicate an umbilical hernia, umbilical cord granuloma, or omphalitis (navel infection); however, another possible cause is an ilioinguinal nerve entrapment or irritation, which can cause pain in the lower abdomen, groin, and inner thighs; consult a general surgeon or a primary care physician for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.
