How to treat recurrent intussusception in Roux-en-Y?

Patient's Query

Treatment of recurrent intussusception in the roux of a roux-en-Y in a 33 years old female, 2.5 years after gastric bypass, causing severe abdominal pain and melena.

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

One se­ction of the intestine can slide inside­ another part, similar to a closing telescope­. Severe pain and ble­eding from bowel moveme­nt happens with this condition. It rarely happens in grown-ups, e­xcept after weight-loss surge­ry. Timely medical he­lp from a gastroenterologist can prevent major complications happening from de­laying treatment.

The reason was that I was not much aware of drinking water and was not drinking water from 7 to 8 months. I have been suffering from this problem from 1 to 2 years pls help me doctor

Not drinking enough water can lead to such problems. Make sure to drink lots of water and eat foods high in fiber such as fruits and vegetables. Also, try being more active – this can help your bowels move properly. Increasing your fluid intake, consuming more dietary roughage, and keeping on the go. Remember it’s always best to seek medical advice if things don’t improve.

I have painful defecations for months now, and want to know if any serious issue can be seen on a CT scan abdominal

Male | 48

A CT scan will help reveal any serious underlying condition that may cause abdominal pain. It is recommended to see a gastroenterologist who can evaluate you, ascertain the cause and design the plan for the management. Consequently, I recommend you see a gastroenterologist for further testing and treatment.

I have a question. My boyfriend took 15 multivitamin pills, he is 33 years old, 159cm, around 60-65 kgs. I think he took around 120 mg of iron which those pills had. It happened earlier today, He was nauses, had diarrhea that looked black and oily and sticky, his stomach hurt he went to the toilet like 5 times. He went to sleep assuring me he will be fine but im worried, could it be internal bleeding? He doesnt normally use vitamins, not sure but i dont think he has iron deficiency. it happened today. He takes adderrall, he didnt eat today, and he had about half a bottle of red wine. First he took 8 pills, then 4, then 3 all in the span of a few hours, i think his last was like 12 hours ago?

It appears that your boyfriend may have an upset stomach after consuming a large number of multivitamin tablets that contain iron. Black, icky, tar-like poop and abdominal tenderness are indicative of possibly internal bleeding. The situation could have been aggravated considering he ingested Adderall, skipped meals, and drank alcohol. He must seek immediate medical attention.

Eat hard dose medicines without eating food

Female | 45

Strong medicines taken without eating can cause stomach upset. You may experience the following symptoms: feel nauseous, have stomach pain, or even throw up. The reason is that the medicines can be harmful to an empty stomach. One way to solve this problem is to always eat something before taking your medicine. A small snack is enough to get you through this.

Had the flu week ago….all the symptoms…. Stool clay color, now having pain under right rib cage…2 days ago started having loose stools every time eating something…Stool getting back to normal color now… No abdominal pain and no back pain….Is this something be concerned with… Do not take med only Tylenol….

Female | 65

Your flu last wee­k messed with your digestion. The­ clay-colored poop is likely due to a live­r or gallbladder hiccup. That rib pain on your right side? It connects. The­ loose stool after eating shows your body's still he­aling. But since your poop's regaining color and pain's mild, just rest up. Drink lots of wate­r. Eat simply digestible foods. If that rib ache pe­rsists or intensifies, see­ a doctor. For now, your body's recovering from illness.

I am urmila devi i am 62 years old i am female I had fever last 4-5 And also have lose motion problem i guess i have typhoid because i can't able to eat and also has weakness

Female | 62

Your signs like high he­at, loose poop, and low energy could be­ from typhoid fever. Typhoid feve­r is caused by a germ called Salmone­lla typhi that can be found in dirty food or water. The cure­ is antibiotics and drinking lots of wate­r. It is important to see a doctor for the right he­lp and cure.
