Why do I feel weak after pooping?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Weakness after defecation is due to vaso vagal reaction. When you tense abdominal muscles or strain to pass stool, vagus nerve is stimulated which decreases the heart rate. Also, blood flow to the heart decreases causing the blood pressure to drop. Hence, decreased heart rate with drop in blood pressure together makes you light headed or weak after passing stool.

View allI'm dealing with loose motion and I have Norflox TZ and Norflox 400 at home. I'm not sure which one to take and I don't really know the difference between the two. Could you help me out, or maybe suggest something else if these aren't the best options?

I'm struggling with constant headaches and feel bloated all the time, plus there's this persistent gas issue. I'm not eating excessively, but I'm still dealing with this ongoing headache. My stomach feels out of sorts too. It's been like this for about two weeks now. Could you help me figure out what's going on?
It sounds like your symptoms could be linked to digestive issues or even stress. You might want to consider checking for food intolerances, and managing stress, and possibly reviewing any medications you're taking. If it persists, its a good idea to consult a doctor to rule out underlying conditions like gastritis or migraines.

I'm a 34-year-old guy dealing with these annoying anal fissures for about 5 years now, and they seem to keep coming back. It's been happening since 2011, and when they appear, the pain is just unbearable. I've been following the doctor's advice more fiber, stool softeners, using Lox 2 jelly, and taking sitz baths. They heal only to reappear like every 2-3 months, especially after episodes of very soft or hard stools. There's this fleshy part around my anus that sticks out, which I think makes things worse. A couple of months ago, I had a sigmoidoscopy, and while everything seemed normal, they did find a small fissure and small piles. The doc just said to keep on with the Lox 2 jelly and add some AnoBliss too. I'm wondering if there's a way to heal these fissures permanently without surgery. Is it alright to keep using Lox 2 jelly every time I go to the bathroom? And, are these recurring fissures something that could potentially lead to rectal or anal cancer?
for permanent cure surgery is the choice ,there is less chances it turns into cancer
