Question
Dear doctor, I am 50 years old this year. 25 years ago, I had bloody stools, then after half a month of treatment, there was no more bleeding, but since then, I have had abdominal pain, bloating, and erratic bowel movements. I have taken medicine for colon and digestive enzymes to help but sometimes my stomach is full and I pass unformed stools, 2-3 times a day but never have blood and my body has gained weight from 50 pounds to now 70 pounds. Please tell me, what are the signs of abdominal pain, bloating and stool disorders? Thank you doctor!

Answer
Hello! Your abdominal pain, bloating, and stool disorders do not rule out gastric disease, stomach infection with Helicobacter pylori bacteria.
You should see a Gastroenterologist for diagnostic testing. The state of weight gain you need to review your diet, lifestyle, exercise and should check blood tests.
You can make an examination at a hospital of Vinmec Health System to get advice from a doctor and have specific discussions about the current problem. Wishing you good health always.
