Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 22-year-old female and I weigh about 168 lbs. Seven months ago, I was in the ER with severe lower abdominal pain. I had blood work, abdominal x-ray, internal ultrasound, and an abdominal CT scan with contrast. They found that I had a ruptured cyst. However, for a couple of months now I have had on and off nausea, bouts of diarrhea, some blood in toilet when wiping, and I have started to poop a little more than I used to. Now I will say that my diet has been kind of crazy since moving to another state. I am not sure if I should be worried about what is going on.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand that the earlier severe abdominal pain might have been due to the rupture of an ovarian cyst, form which you have made a good recovery since.

As you have already pointed out a change of location and with that, an erratic diet pattern, the focus should be on any infection involving the large bowel which might be causing your symptoms. It is important that you keep in mind the following.

1. Please have well cooked and hygienic foods at all times.

2. Drink plenty of water and fresh juices and visit washrooms regularly.

3. Never skip meals during the day and if time permits, have helpings of fruits and snacks in between larger meals.

4. Control your anxiety and stress levels. This can also cause some of the symptoms mentioned by you.

If you ever have diarrhea for more than 24 hours then please consult a doctor for emergency first aid and medicines.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
