Is paste like yellow stool common with IBS? No matter how much fiber I add or how much water I drink, the majority of my stool is like this. I eat apple, banana, and oats daily in the morning for fiber. I do not eat junk food, totally stopped for a year. Is this IBS? Also, if I drink milk or eat spicy food, I have observed smelly gas after that. Please guide. LFT, CBC, urine, and thyroid are all normal.

Yellow, paste like stools can occur in IBS, especially with your pattern of symptoms. Adding fiber and hydration helps, but IBS can still cause loose stools, bloating, and gas after milk or spicy food. It is good you avoid junk and eat a healthy diet. Since your LFT, CBC, thyroid, and urine tests are normal, this is reassuring. You can book a Stool Routine and Microscopy test to rule out infections or fat malabsorption if symptoms continue.

View allI am experiencing what may be a navel displacement, as I have pain in my belly and my digestive system is not functioning correctly. I went to the doctor, who gave me medicines and did some tests, but everything came back normal. Still, I feel pain and indigestion. I also notice a pulse just an inch above my belly button. What should I do?
Answered by Apollo Doctors
Sir/Madam, good evening. I have been suffering from digestion problems for the last 40 days. On 10th April, I had fever along with 12 times loose motion, but I got relief after taking paracetamol. My body temperature stayed around 99.4 during the day and returned to normal in the morning and evening for the next 3 days. I took Augmentine 625 thrice a day and Hatric 3 twice a day for 2 days, after which I developed severe acidity problems. My doctor then prescribed me Pentoz DSR and Melzap MD for 7 days, but when symptoms continued, he changed my medicines to Pantoprazole DSR and Normaxin RT for 10 days, which gave me around 30 percent relief. Currently, I am taking Erojole DSR and Udinol 300 twice a day, and this has improved my condition up to 70 percent, reducing acidity, heaviness in the chest, and pain. I am attaching my LFT test and Widal test report. Could you please suggest what the reports indicate and guide me further based on my condition?

Hi, in my stool report it is mentioned as alkaline reaction. I want to know if that is normal or not? I have also attached my report for your reference. Regards, Ramya
