I've just finished a 14-day treatment for H. pylori, and while most of my symptoms are gone, I'm still having stomach issues. Eating out or having chicken seems to upset my stomach, and I end up with loose motions. I'm mostly eating food from a mess, so I'm wondering what kind of diet I should stick to and what types of food I should avoid to prevent this from happening. Can you help me figure out a plan?

After completing an H. pylori treatment, it is important to follow a specific diet to prevent stomach upset and loose motions. You should follow a bland diet that includes easily digestible foods. Here are some dietary recommendations: - Eat small, frequent meals throughout the day - Consume foods that are low in fat and fiber - Include foods like bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast (BRAT diet) - Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated - Avoid spicy, greasy, and fried foods - Limit or avoid dairy products, caffeine, and alcohol - Avoid eating outside or in places where food hygiene may be compromised

View allI'm experiencing a tightness in my chest that's been going on for about two weeks now, and I also have loose stools and have noticed some weight loss. I went for an ECG, and it came back normal. I initially thought it might be gastric issues, but even after taking gastric medications, there's been no relief. Could there be something else going on? I'm a bit concerned about these symptoms. What should I do next?

I'm really worried about my health and could use some advice. I've been dealing with Spleenomegaly and Portal Vein Hypertension for the past four years, and on top of that, I've got esophagus varices. I recently had EVL banding done twice, but honestly, I haven't noticed any improvement. I'm just not active at all, and it's really bothering me. Can you help me understand the root cause of all this and what might be a permanent solution?

I'm a bit worried about a small polyp in my gallbladder. Can it lead to any type of gallbladder cancer? Also, I feel some minor pain in my abdomen when I'm hungry. Could that be because of the polyp?
Having small size polyp in the gallbladder can potentially increase the risk of developing gallbladder cancer, although it is rare. The minor pain in your abdomen when you are hungry may or may not be directly related to the polyp. It is important to monitor the size of the polyp regularly through imaging studies and follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation. As for medication, there is no specific drug to treat gallbladder polyps. However, if you are experiencing pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) as needed, following the recommended dosage instructions on the package. If the pain persists or worsens, consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
