tongue and digestion

My 10 year old lab mix has eaten 4 whole stuffed jalepeno's and now she isn't feeling very good, what can I do to help her?

It is notably different from when there was an over growth of yeast in my system. Primary being that if I ate breads or sugars my digestion and tongue would flair up with really bad diarrhea and a much thicker paste on my tongue. As of now my symptoms are similar but also different and its very confusing. My ENT Doctor had a culture of my tongue done and no fungus growth was found.

Try putting some infant probiotic powder into her bottle. If you can't get infant, get an adult capsule and open it and put a few of the grains into her bottle or right onto her tongue and then feed her. It's been tested and works better than Gripe Water or Mylicon.

I noticed a cluster of bumps on the very back of my tongue. I only see them when i stick my tongue out very far. They are behind the "v" of papillae and just above the epiglottis (the thing that closes over the trachea. i dont know if thats the right term). Any ways, they dont hurt at all, but i just noticed them recently.... Anyone know what these are?

re only giving her breast milk even if I have to pump it. At first we did both formula and breast milk (she had tongue tied so it was excruciating to feed her) and she accepted both , but with the formula she would be a little more fussier than she is now with my milk. But now I really enjoy breastfeeding I feel closer to her. However like I said it depends on how your baby reacts to either or. I hope this helped.

My daughter has just been diagnosed with dysautonomia. We have been going to a gastroenterologist for months and had endoscopy's and a colonoscopy with no answers for her chronic constipation and nausea, now we know it is caused by the dysautonomia. Does anyone have an answer that will help her with constipation and digestion? She has to take a ton of laxatives just to go to the bathroom at all. She eats very little and is a vegan.

hi have had diarrhea on and off for almost a month my pcp did a stool sample and I found up today that I have no good bacteria in my stool what does this mean and can this be a bad my pcp wants me on a bland diet and take pro biotics twice a day and how do you loose your good bacteria

I have MS and one major problem I have is GERD, hiatal hernia, and gastroparesis. I have finally found relief for the constipation that goes with this. I now take 2 omeprazole a day, 4 domperidone--a motility drug, and a Zantac before bed. I have tried ginger capsules and all kinds of natural supplements, plus tums, etc. Any suggestions? I have had a bezoar when digestion just stopped, gall bladder out--infection in that. I feel like I have morning sickness all the time!

Today i took a bm and it was bloody . Like bright red . And at the time is was difficult to pass but i pushed it out way too fast . No itching or anything but when i wiped there was blood . At least a spot as big as a nickel . Bright red . And there was spots of bright red blood on the stool but not mixed . Ive been experiencing contipation and i have had no change in diet . Idk what it could be . Could i have hemorrhoids ? There's no growth outside the anus .

Most of the time some foods come out undigested - i do have IBS and have terrible gas and bloating.

Welcome to the gastroenterology community! What do you mean by "weight over a 150 pounds to boot"? Do you mean that she needs to loose 150 pounds to be at a normal weight? How long has this been going on for? Has she seen a doctor about this?

As soon as I swallow food some days my abdomen above my navel will feel like there is a big bubble of air or gas in it. Tolerable but yet discomforting. Flatulence and feel like passing a stool but not ready yet. Anyone who has gone through this and offer some great solid advice?

Cramps in relation to bright red rectal bleeding may be suggestive of a partial colonic obstruction and very rarely suggest cancer .The possibilities that may need to be considered include GI motility issues as seen in IBS, infections, inflammatory bowel diseases, growths/ masses etc. You should seek consultation from a gastroenterologist to consider the possibilities mentioned above. Have a fiber rich diet. Once a specific cause is identified, it can be managed accordingly.

Yes,,I would start tx.

Hello, I went to an ENT a few weeks ago and the strange areas on my tongue were geographic tongue. But my tongue is constantly white no matter how much I brush it and I have been having a sore throat as well. I am not sure why I am so worried. I brought the white tongue to the attention of the MD, but he didn't think much of it. I think it is odd. If anyone else has had any similar experiences, I would love to hear about them. Thanks for your time!

I have another question regarding Levothyroxine. I've been on it for 5 weeks now and for the most part the only positive difference I've noticed is having more energy. The cons of things I've been feeling are muscle pains, menstrual cycle changes and digestion. Can Levothyroxine cause constipation or mess up your digestion in any way? I've been having a lot of abdominal pain for the past week and my stomach is just gurgling really loudly when I eat.

hi everybody this question may not belong to here but i didnt find the right place so i had problems in digestion and any food make great amount of gases and my colon i think it is not stable and i feel my intestine moving in different directions and making noise and sound and in the morning i always feel that my stomatch is not well like i will vomit if i eat any normal food but the great problem is that these great amount of gases i cant prevent them for long time so they are moving quickly f

T2 area of the vertabrae) have a very large part in the heart rates and rhythm. I have been treated on and off again by him for about 12 years for lower back problems. After my attempted ablation and ICD implant, I went saw him for a treatment on my lower back and told him about my heart issues. He explained about he sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves and how they work and adjusted my T1 & T2 areas.. I went back once a week for several weeks and then stopped going...thus...

I have been having problems with my stomach - bloating, stomach noises, butterflies, burping and slight pain. My doc has tested my blood for most things and i am going for an ultra sound scan soon. however, i wanted you opinion on whether my thyroid could be hyper active. i have a fast, pounding heart rate, light painful irregular periods and the problem runs in my family. can hyperthyroidism cause stomach problems? Should i mention my concerns to my doc and she has not suggested thyroid issues?

My gastro is going to start me on Humira and my question is, does Humira aid with digestion and stop the diarrhea. Thanks!

Does hypothyroidism cause a lack of digestion and in tern a lack of absorption of nutrients? I have an iron issue at the moment but have not started treatment with Synthoid or anything like that. I am unsure whether my iron problem will improve if my digestion is not at its full potential. Any advice?

t know anything about Synthroid or for that matter, I know nothing about the thyroid. What I need to know is could there be a connection between Synthroid and the lack of digestion? I.E. stumic always full and very little, er... leaving the system. The digestion is still working but it's very very slow. Again, I think I know what is causing my problem but just to be sure I need to know if there could be a connection between Synthroid and the digestion?

Hello my name is Babbal I am new to the forum. Ok so here is my issue I weigh 230 lbs absolutley unintentional I cannot lose weight no matter what I consume only about a thousand calories a day not because i starve myself because frankly that is my capacity when a growing male my age needs about 2500. Next I have a very very slow digestive system I have GERD take prevacid 30mg twice a day..

ll want to make sure that they only contain Proteases, Lipase and Amylase and no other active ingredients. Prescription enzymes are the best. There are sustained-action enzymes and immediate release enzymes. A combination of the two can work wonders but you'd need to get instructions from your doctor and then figure out what works best for you. Enzymes take several weeks before they work. Enzymes are also sold in health food stores but, again, watch the ingredients.

If you've been on the nexium and you've changed your diet to a GERD-friendly one and the symptoms continue, have you been scoped yet? If not, it's time to ask your doc for more testing. Ask to be tested for H. pylori and have an upper endoscopy done to get an idea of what your esophagus, stomach and duodenum look like. All PPIs have side-effects that can be more serious than weight gain.

Be sure to eat your food slowly and drink before and after meals to promote good digestion.

Have noticed several times in the last two months when I wake and particularly if I have to speak on the phone soon after waking, that my tongue seems heavy and partially paralysed, which makes speaking quite laboured and slow. It is not the vocal cords but very definitely the tongue from which this speech issue is emanating. I am wondering if this may be a subtle advancement of past and ongoing symptoms/diagnoses!
