STOMACH PROBLEMS

g’day everyone

So…I have been having constipation for the longest time. I can’t believe im sharing this…but i need help:(
I think it was becauz of Ramadhan, as my doctor says.

So yeah it has been over a month, and i still get stomach pains and I can’t go to the washroom properly.
On top of it, I have CONSTANT bloating and the worst…gas. I pass a lot of gas, and dont really know what to do :(.

I dont know what to eat, what not to eat.
A couple of days ago i had a laxative…which did not help mcuh.
I find everything i eat, i feel bloated and get more gas. I constantly feel like going to the washroom, but i can’t go.

I had milk earlier yesterday, and after that it was downhill from there.

wow, how mcuh do I hate this?

please help. My doctor referred me to get x-rays done, to see stools or something like that.

but righgt nwo it really hurts. and i dont know what to do, or what i should/n’t eat.

Thanks ya’ll

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

Jal jeera sold at Indian Stores is the most quick laxative I ever came across. Try it if you can find it. Add lots of fibers to your diet.
Here it is:

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

Really you should have a stool sample tested. This can show whats causing the problem.

Almonds help with gastric acid and bloating.

High fiber foods (oatmeal, wheat etc) can help you "go".

Stool softeners like colase will help you go too but dont use them often as your body would eventually "forget" how to operate without these meds.

Best thing is to use a laxative but SEE YOUR DOC and have some tests done

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

what kind of doctor did you go to, he said I "guess"? Seriously some docs you should be smacked in the head couple times with their license.

Try to go to another doc.

What a bummer you missed out on this thread

Well anyway, Isabgol (Psyllium Husk) is great for constipation.

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

^^I second that. Mix one tsp in a glass of water and drink immediately or mix that amount in 1/2 cup yogurt and eat up.

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

try green tea or miralax

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

maybe not eating a lot and going on a all liquid diet may help

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

Isphagol and tut malanga.. both are VERY good for stomach issues.

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

^I think it's called tukh malanga..

Ispaghol is supposed to be really good..try that empty stomach though. I have heard of Prune juice as well..not sure though. Maybe someone here can confirm.

Prune juice is awesome. My aunt takes it regularly and loves it.


Prune juice is a nice option and you should take it first thing in morning it will help you.

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

I think its IBS. You should try Hamdard's "bail gri ka murraba".

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

Yes drink water early in the morning, then walk some 10 mins. You will feel relief. And you can get guava (armood) eat it. It will help a lot.

Re: STOMACH PROBLEMS

wow
I HAVE DONE ALL THAT xcept that muraba stuff...what is it?

yes my doc is insane, he syas its nothign to worry about - that im too young to have problems. I have to admit, i stress a lot too...so...:S.
I have bran flakes every morning..at least cereal as my doctor told me to do. He told me to have metamucil every night, but i guess isaphgol is the same thing, or better?...

I had guava...and not like just once...but throughout Ramadan, my mom even got ones that are from pakistan, it helped me a bit, but its been soo long
Its now 1am, and i ate around 8...and I still feel super bloated. its super weird. I don't eat much as it is

I've had green tea, isapbhol(watever), this natural laxative (apparently its good for your skin if you put in boil water and steam for your face), excercsing on a regular basis, not eating a lot, eating little meals throughout the day
its just too much, i will be getting xrays done shortly to determine whats going on...
im just afriad i have IBS...or that im all of a sudden lactose intolerant BECAUSE I LOVE MILK :(

boooo...im so miserable.

QUESTION: with isaphogl (whatever) ka chilka...you have to have it every night before bed right?...i just find i get more bloating because of it...:S

also i stopped having coffee, which i dont have a lot of anyway.

thanks for your help guys,
much appreciated:)

whats that malanga stuff?...where can i get it

also isagphol - i was told to have it before going to bed?...

lastly does anyone know about OOLONG tea?... its supposed to make you go to the washroom - but i not sure...I'm afraid.

i havent had prune juice, but i ate a lot of prunes during ramadhan,

wow. I feel like my stomach is going to explode - my stomach is really hard.

Tukh malanga is holy basil and its seeds. You can have it at any desi store. Its called niyaz bo in Punjabi.

Murabba is made from this fruit.
