Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have very frequent and chronic mouth ulcers that come and go over some time. Although I do not constantly get indigestion, it occasionally seems like my stomach is upset since I have bloating and hiccups after eating. I saw a gastroenterologist, who recommended a CBCT scan of my abdomen, and the results revealed that I have a few swollen mesenteric lymph nodes. Six months ago, the diagnosis was made. After that, the doctor suspected tuberculosis and advised me to watch it for a few months with care before beginning the medicine. Surprisingly, basic vigilance for two to three months reduced the size of my lymph nodes, and USG reports show that only a few non-specific nodes are remaining. The reason for the CBCT was frequent loose stools and bloating that progressively subsided over time. As of now, I am not experiencing any major symptoms of any type, but my previous condition of getting mouth ulcers has not yet been addressed, even though everything else has been resolved. I believe it is related to a problem with my digestive system because the amount of food I eat and the diet I follow do not suit my body. Despite taking all of the essential vitamins and having normal LFT, CBC, and KFT results, I am becoming rather thin and anemic. There has also been no major weight loss in recent months, yet the body remains undernourished and no one can pinpoint the cause.
Please help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
You mentioned, the reports are normal, with only minimal intestinal thickening. Do you regularly get a low-grade fever? Do you get enough sleep, exercise regularly, and practice yoga and pranayam? Do you eat fast food more often? Do you stay away from salads and fruits? Please answer with specifics. It will aid in properly advising you.
Thank you
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
No, I rarely get fevers, except for the occasional cold or the flu. My sleep routine as a final-year college student is occasionally disturbed by late-night classes or studying. I get up between 8 and 9 AM. and go to bed around 2 AM. In general, I do not have any trouble sleeping, except at times when I am tired from traveling or have just done a lot of work. Yoga, Pranayam, and exercises are rather unique in the schedule because of the late morning wake-up. The food provided at the dorm where I stay is bad.
So yes, I do consume it frequently while I am there. But even though I have avoided fast food since having been at home for a month, I currently have four to five oral ulcers. At the esophageal aperture close to the uvula, even drinking water becomes painful. No, I do not shy away from eating fruits and salads. I frequently incorporate them into my diet. To gain weight and muscle mass, I supplement my normal diet with a few bananas and a glass of milk, but nothing changes. This is what makes me think that my body fails to adequately absorb nutrition.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Do not be worried. Vitamin and mineral deficiencies contribute to oral ulcer recurrence. Possibly brought on by a bad diet, inactivity, or inadequate rest. Not really a big deal. Take it easy. Make a lifestyle change. Get up early and routinely go for walks until you are perspiring. Regularly practice yoga and pranayama to improve circulation, digestion, and food absorption. Your focus, memory, physical stamina, and mental toughness will all improve as a result. Consider dates, beets, jaggery, bananas, and other seasonal fruits. Drink milk often. Is it also possible to have a hostel room? Limit your consumption of tea and coffee. Take a tablet. Bandy Plus (Ivermectin and Albendazole) once a day and a tablet of Geriforte (Himsra and Ksani), twice daily for three to six months, a tablet B active (Benfotiamine) for six weeks daily, a tablet.of Folvite (Folic acid) once a day for six weeks. Send me an update in three weeks.
