Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

What medications or treatment options are suitable for managing the symptoms of my multiple conditions of PCOD, chocolate cyst, adenomyosis, and inflammatory bowel disease, particularly in addressing severe pain and bowel-related issues triggered by the consumption of fatty or spicy foods? How can I alleviate these symptoms and improve my overall quality of life considering the complexity of these health issues? I am struggling to control myself from eating spicy food. Please give me a solution.

Hello,

I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.

I understand your concern.

Take a dietitian's opinion who can suggest a diet plan based on your height, weight, body mass index, preferences, and personal likes and dislikes.

Here are my suggestions:

  1. The key is to manage portion sizes.
  2. Stay well-hydrated.
  3. Regular physical activity is crucial to burning calories, whether through brisk walking, yoga, gym workouts, running, jogging, or playing a sport.
  4. Use the staircase whenever possible.
  5. Sometimes, we tend to eat when we are actually thirsty; make sure to drink at least 101 fluid ounces of water a day.
  6. Drink three glasses of warm water on an empty stomach in the morning unless contraindicated.
  7. Watch what you eat.
  8. Include lots of green leafy vegetables and fresh whole fruits in your routine.
  9. Have regular follow-ups with your treating doctor to ensure that the above conditions are under control.
  10. Avoid self-medication.
  11. Check vitals regularly.
  12. Stay away from fried, oily, junk food, alcohol, non-vegetarian items, and smoking.
  13. Avoid stress in both personal and professional life.
  14. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further.

    Thank you.
