Common Causes of Abdominal Pain &Burning Sensation, with Normal Ultrasound Results for Liver& spleen

Patient's Query

What could be causing my abdominal pain and burning sensation, with a mild enlargement in size of my liver and spleen? I'm concerned about the possibility of a serious condition like colon cancer. Can you provide any guidance or information?

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

Mild enlargement of the liver and spleen, without any focal lesions, can have various causes and may not necessarily indicate a serious disease like colon cancer. Conditions like fatty liver disease, viral infections, inflammation, etc. can be associated with the swelling of these organs.
A proper diagnosis can only be made by a healthcare professional like a gastroenterologist after considering your complete medical history.

I am having itching in my butthole i dont know why i am having it .

Male | 17

Itchiness in the anus can be annoying, and it can be because of many different factors. At times, it can happen because of not cleaning properly after using the toilet. Moreover, conditions such as piles, skin, agitations could be the culprits. Use mild, unscented wipes or a soothing cream to decrease the itching. In case there are no improvements, make a point to visit a healthcare provider.

I have food poisoning PLS help

Male | 12

Tummy aches, throwing up, and frequent bathroom trips are common signs of food poisoning. The key is staying hydrated; drink lots of water or rehydration drinks. Stick to simple eats like crackers or rice for now. Give your body a break and avoid spicy, greasy, or dairy items. If symptoms don't improve or get worse, see a gastroenterologist right away.

I have been suffering from digestive issues and stomach disorders for about a month. I feel like it takes long for my stomach to digest food. I feel hungry but I can't eat because of this issue. If I do, I'll get acid reflux and other symptoms.

Male | 20

Gastritis makes the stomach lining inflamed. Slow digestion, lack of appetite, and acid reflux occur. Stress, spicy foods, and medications cause it. Eat small meals frequently. Avoid caffeine and alcohol. Stay hydrated. Manage stress through breathing or meditation. See a gastroenterologist if symptoms don't improve.

I am 24yrs old female and i have a lots of itching in my anus and while passing stools blood comes out and there is pain. Due to this i have a lots of trouble in sitting or walking and no matter how much food i eat i am able to paas stools only after 3 days..i checked my anus and i saw extra skin around the anus so please tell me what should i do??

Female | 24

You might have a condition called hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids can be responsible for such manifestations as itching, pain, and bleeding during bowel movements. The extra skin you notice around the anus is probably swollen blood vessels. To help relieve the discomfort, try increasing the fiber intake, drinking enough water, and using over-the-counter creams. If your symptoms do not subside, see a gastroenterologist for a more thorough diagnosis and treatment.

• Hepatitis B carriers are persons who carry the hepatitis B virus in their blood but do not experience symptoms. Between 6% and 10% of persons infected with the virus will become carriers and will be able to infect others without knowing it.

• A considerable proportion of chronic hepatitis B (HBV) patients are in the inactive carrier state, which is characterised by normal transaminase levels, limited viral replication, and little liver necroinflammatory activity. After at least one year of frequent monitoring, a diagnosis is made, and lifelong follow-up is required to ensure that this status is maintained.

• In case there is no improvement in HBVDNA levels, consult your expert but do not stop the medication on your own.

• Drugs prescribed such as Tafero (tenofovir) acts by ceasing the production of new viruses, blocks or slows viral proliferation in human cells, and eliminates the infection and also boost the level of CD4 cells (white blood cells that fight infection) in your blood. Entaliv (entecavir) acts by inhibiting the viral replications processes like reverse transcription, DNA replication and transcription.

• Seek the advice of a hepatologist so that your treatment may be adjusted according to your specific needs and preferences.

If due to more pressure on the lower abdomen and vomiting, you are experiencing the symptom, that could be a sign of the underlying medical condition. Seeing a gastroenterologist or visiting a hospital emergency room for a complete assessment is the best thing to do.

It's common for babies to have a bloated stomach without crying, and normal urine and bowel movements. However, if you notice persistent bloating or changes in feeding patterns, it's advisable to consult a pediatrician. They can rule out any underlying issues and ensure your baby's health.
