Is it normal to poop 5 times a day?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
There is no normal bowel movement. It can range from three times a day to three times a week. However, your normal pattern may be different from these numbers. If you have always been having five bowel movements daily then it is normal pattern for you. But, if this is a new change along with change is stool consistency then you might be having any intestinal infection or disease for which you need to consult a doctor.

View allI've been having some stomach pain and my doctor did an endoscopy. He mentioned something about an h pylari or h capitalliary infection. I'm on this Sompraz hp kit now, but since I started taking it, I've been having really loose stools and feel like I can't control it. Is this normal? What should I do?
Given the blood groups you mentioned: - Mother (O+) - Father (B+) - Child (A+) _It is theoretically possible_ for the child to have the A+ blood group, as the ABO blood group system is controlled by multiple genes. However, it's essential to explore this further. To discuss this topic, consider consulting: 1. *Geneticist*: A specialist in genetics and heredity. 2. *Medical Geneticist*: A medical doctor specializing in genetics and genomics. Regarding DNA testing, you can ask for a: 1. *Parentage Test*: Also known as a Paternity Test or DNA Paternity Test. 2. *DNA Profiling*: A test that analyzes specific DNA markers to determine biological relationships. Some common DNA tests used for parentage testing include: 1. *Short Tandem Repeat (STR) Testing*: Analyzes specific DNA markers. 2. *Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Testing*: Amplifies specific DNA sequences. Before proceeding, consider the emotional implications of DNA testing and discuss them with your family and a genetic counselor if needed.

Is LINX surgery available in India and how does it compare to other treatments for faster recovery? I've heard it can be removed if complications arise but I'm not sure about success rates or where to find good specialists for this procedure
Yes, LINX surgery is available in India, according to Dr. Jasmeet Singh Ahluwalia and other surgeons like Dr. Tulip Obese. It's a minimally invasive procedure to treat GERD, offering potential for faster recovery compared to more extensive surgeries like Nissen fundoplication, says VIP Surg and endoscopic treatments, according to www.atulpeters.com and IndiCure Health Tours. The LINX device can be removed if complications arise, but success rates and long-term outcomes are generally good.

I'm feeling a bit worried because last night, out of nowhere, I felt this weird vibration on the right side of my abdomen and it lasted for around 10 minutes. I also have this tingling sensation below my right rib cage, but it's not near the liver area. An ultrasound came back normal, so I'm confused about what's going on. I didn't feel any severe pain, but it was strange having my entire right side abs vibrating like something's moving inside. Could it have anything to do with the Zifi CV 200 and Zerodol sp I took for my sore throat before bed? Any insight would be appreciated.
since Ultrasonography is normal nothing much to worry. Have a gastritis tablet like pantop 30 min before food for 3 days
