Why do I feel like pooping but nothing comes out?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It can be because of lack of fibre in diet and some intestinal conditions like irritable bowel syndrome. Try to include high fiber foods such as Pears, strawberries, apple, oat meal, brown rice, banana, broccoli, green leafy vegetables (kale, spinach), avocado, carrots, tomato, beans and sweet potato in diet and take plenty of fluids.If issue still persist then consult a doctor.

View allI've recently been told I have grade 1 fatty liver, and I used to have irritable bowel syndrome. I've been on antibiotics for a liver infection for a few days. I'm experiencing pain in my liver area from the infection, but there's also a constant pain in my abdomen, especially when I press on it, and sometimes even without pressing. This has been going on for months. What could be causing this pain? I had an ultrasound, and it only showed the liver problem. I really want to understand what's going on so it can be treated. Can you help?
The persistent abdominal pain, despite antibiotics for liver infection, could be related to your pre-existing irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), as fatty liver disease and IBS often co-exist; other possible causes may include inflammation, scarring, or adhesions from past liver or abdominal issues; consider consulting a gastroenterologist to investigate further and develop a comprehensive treatment plan addressing both your fatty liver and IBS symptoms.

I'm really concerned because my ultrasound report came back showing hepatomegaly with fatty liver grade 1 and a partially distended gallbladder. My SGPT and SGOT levels are normal, and so is my bilirubin and alkaline phosphate. I do experience light inflammation and occasional pain in my right upper abdomen. I'm worried and feeling a lot of anxiety about this. Could you please tell me what's going on and recommend any medications or treatments I should consider? I'm eager to understand more about my situation.
Your ultrasound shows a mild fatty liver (grade 1) and a partially distended gallbladder, which could be linked to diet or minor gallbladder dysfunction. Since your liver enzymes and bilirubin are normal, its not alarming. Focus on a low-fat, balanced diet and regular exercise, and consult a doctor to discuss potential medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid if needed. Don't worry; this is manageable with lifestyle changes.

My wife has an 18 mm stone in her gall bladder and sometimes she feels pain because of it. I'm wondering if there are ayurvedic treatments for this or if she will have to rely only on allopathic medicine.
For an 18 mm gallbladder stone, Ayurvedic treatments like certain herbs (e.g., Gokshura, Triphala) may help manage symptoms, but they might not dissolve large stones. Allopathic treatment, including possible surgery or non-invasive methods like lithotripsy, is usually recommended for stones of this size. It's best to consult a doctor for a personalized approach.
