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'm really concerned and looking for some advice. I started taking Nuroday for my low vitamin B12 levels back in November, but by December, I had a stomach infection with acute diarrhea. Then it happened again in February, and now I've developed irritable bowel syndrome. Every time I take Nuroday, my symptoms seem to get worse and I end up going to the bathroom up to 67 times a day. Could this be a side effect of the Nuroday?

My dad has an 11 mm gallbladder stone and we're really worried about his health. Is it dangerous for him? Should he consider surgery or are there other treatment options? We're not sure what to do next.
Gallbladder stones can be dangerous if symptomatic; surgical removal is usually advised, especially if there's a risk of complications.

I've been told I have Marginal Hepatomegaly with diffuse fatty changes, but my liver function test is normal. My liver is 14.8 cm, I'm 30, Indian male, 5.6 feet tall, and I weigh 86 kg. I don't drink alcohol, soft drinks, or tea, and I walk for 30 minutes every day. I do take allergy meds. What should I do to get my liver back to normal?
Focus on weight loss through healthy eating and regular exercise. Eat a balanced, nutrient-rich diet high in fiber and antioxidants. Continue walking daily, and aim to increase physical activity gradually. Keep a healthy lifestyle with no alcohol and limiting processed sugars. Regularly follow up with your doctor for liver health monitoring and tests.
