Q. My mother has diarrhea, and her stomach is bloated and paining. Please help.
Hi doctor,
My mom is not feeling well, and I am concerned about internal bleeding. This morning, she had a decreased appetite, foot swelling (right), and diarrhea. She has back pain along with pain and bloating in the abdomen. She just wants to go to bed. She also noticed some spotting in her underwear, although she had a hysterectomy over 10 years ago. She mentioned that yesterday she felt a strange tight feeling followed by a "warm spreading" sensation. I am very worried. Please help.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- Diarrhea, back pain, abdominal pain, and decreased appetite are most probably due to a colon cause, which could be an inflammatory bowel disease or diverticulosis. If these episodes keep coming, your mom will need a colonoscopy to confirm the diagnosis.
- As for the spotting, it is mostly due to a cervical polyp, which will need excision if it keeps symptomatizing.
