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've been dealing with a scratchy throat that keeps coming and going for the last six months. It doesn't really hurt or cause major issues, just feels a bit rough sometimes. Plus, for the past two months, I've noticed my papillae are inflamed, which might be why I have this white coating on my tongue. I've visited ENT specialists, but the antibiotics they prescribe don't make a difference. The scratchy throat seems to come and go, but the inflamed papillae and that scrappable white coating on my tongue aren't going away. What could be causing these symptoms? Should I be worried or try something different?
It sounds like you might be dealing with chronic irritation, possibly due to post-nasal drip or a mild infection, which can lead to a scratchy throat and inflamed papillae. The white coating on your tongue, which is scrappable, could indicate a fungal overgrowth or poor oral hygiene. If antibiotics aren't helping, it might be worth revisiting the ENT specialist for a more targeted approach, such as antifungal treatment or addressing any underlying reflux or immune system factors.

I've been having really bad burps, a severe stomach ache, and feeling like I might puke since last week. I went to see a general physician on the 16th of October, and he gave me some meds to take for five days. But then, my period started on the 21st, and I woke up with my face, eyes, hands, legs, and knees all swollen. I'm also feeling dizzy, still having burps, and that stomach ache hasn't gone away. Could this be a reaction to the medicine or maybe something else going on?
seems like you have a allergic reaction consult your doctor for further evaluation
