Stomach is bloated not due to fat accumulation. There is an uncomfortable feeling after meals and the stomach has a tight feeiling. Appears as though the colon needs to be cleansed.

Lately when I eat anything greasy, spicy or full of caffeine I end up so sick I have terrible stomach aches accompanied by horrific cramps and vomiting. I am going to obviously avoid foods such as lots of soda, spicy foods and greasy foods but should this be something that I visit the doctor about or is it something that sounds like it can be handled via a diet change?

Thanks!

Hi,

At the start of last year sometime, I developed dry skin around my groin area (just outside of my knicker/pany line). It then spread a little higher up around my hip bones (symmetrical on each side). It looks quite scaly and I thought it might have been a side effect from losing weight – I thought that it looked kind of like the skin had been stretched. But I only dropped 3 dress sizes – so it’s not like I was obese and dropped down to skinny and was left with loads of saggy skin.

Anyway, it has got worse ever since and now covers my whole stomach, sides, under arms, bottom of breasts and has recently started on my arms. It has recently creeped up my back (only the bottom though). The skin is extremely flaky on the sides of my stomach – it doesn’t seem as flaky down the centre of my stomach any more. It’s not flaky on my chest. My legs above the knee are quite dry but don’t flake that much.

I went to see a skin doctor and he said that I defiantly had a skin condition rather than just dry skin. He said he thinks it could be Ichthyosis. He said it is not Eczema.

At the moment I have had to try to exfoliate the skin away with a brush once a week, then have my shower as normal. I shower once a day and then lather myself in Oilatum shower stuff each time then rinse off and pat dry with a towel.

I have been using Eurcerin Dry Skin Intensive 10% w/w Urea Treatment Lotion on the affected area after my shower – it does help but I feel like it is just sticking my skin together rather than treating me. It’s also very oily and makes my skin feel very clammy and uncomfortable. If I have a shower and don’t use these lotions – my skin is very flaky – to the point that when I take off my t shirt in the morning my skin starts whooshing up like a whirlwind! Gross!

I am a 27 year old female and as far as I know no one in my family has any skin problems.

I am worried because I have read that Ichthyosis not caused by genetics, known as acquired ichthyosis, is very rare. This type is said to usually start in adulthood and is usually associated with other internal diseases, such as cancer, thyroid disease or chronic renal failure. Do you think that I have one of these problems? I have had quite a few none-related blood tests within the last year and they have come back normal, apart from the hormone blood test which showed I had low oestrogen levels. Could low oestrogen levels be related?

Is there a cure for my skin? I don’t understand why it suddenly started last year when I have never had problems before? I have been to the doctor about it but as usual they just try to sell you a load of creams rather than try to find out what it is and if it can be cured.

Could diet be a factor? Could putting a filter on my shower water help? Any other ideas? Could colonic irrigation help? Could washing powder be a factor?

I hope somebody out there can help, as it’s getting quite upsetting now.

Thanks for your time.

The doctor put me on 2 antibiotics, & 1 of the side effects is diarrhea. Today, it seemed like I was NEVER gonna get to get off the toilet! How can your body produce THAT much of diarrhea? & my stomach was hurting, & I had gas, too.
I can’t eat yogurt. I have trouble swallowing it.

I have been constipated for over a week and i dont want to get dependant on the laxitive i was perscribed. I heard about this fleet enema, is it really just water. ALso is it an over the counter thing or do you need a perscription. My stomach has been feeling like i got stabbed for days now even with the laxitive lactulose. How well does this work. I want a total evacuation of my bowels, im tired of missing work from to much pain.

I have a problem with gas. Im in college, and everytime I’m in a class, my stomach always gets bubbly and i let out uncontrollable farts sometimes. It really distracting, because instead of focusing on the instructor, Im too worried about controlling my colon so that I dont fart too much and draw too much attention to myself. I drink mainly water, and for the most part I eat healthily. I’ve tried gas X, but it doesnt seem to help. Is there anything I could do to prevent me from building up gas and fixing this problem? My mom has signed me up for a colonic hydrotherapy cleansing this weekend, will that help fix the problem? I know this is really off, but I really have no idea what to do.

This is going to be TMI, so stop reading now if easily grossed out. I’ve cut out all meat and dairy products from my diet – it’s been about a week and a half so far.

Yesterday and today I have had gas so bad it looks like I’m a little pregnant.. my stomach is actually bloated and it’s killing me.

Is it all the fruit and veggies causing this? Will it go away or is there something I can do about it?

Also, perhaps I need my system cleaned out. Does anyone suggest a colonic cleansing once you’ve cut out all meat?

Gross subject, I know. Thanks for your help…. again!

I had an appendix surgery 3 days ago. After that, I have been having diarrhea. Does somebody know if this is normal?

By the way, this kind of diarrhea does not make my stomach hurt, as opposed to (I guess) a normal diarrhea.
