Question
Hello doctor,
For more than 1 month now, I eat and drink normally, I don't have stomach pain but it is very difficult to go out, sometimes I feel sad but when I go to the toilet, I can't sit or walk a little. uncomfortable. Initially, there were episodes of abdominal pain and diarrhea for no reason, but now it is difficult or extremely small. Sometimes, I have to push to come out, the stool is not shaped, but it is crushed or apple. I have taken digestive enzymes but only the first time helps me to have a bowel movement (but still decomposed, alive), and now I feel like drinking is still not very effective. The doctor told me that difficulty in defecation, faeces, living are symptoms of what disease? I can't concentrate because I'm nervous. I hope the doctor can help me. Thank you doctor.

In addition, it can also be due to an unreasonable diet, stress, stress, .. The patient is examined with a specialist doctor, performing tests to diagnose the cause and extent of the disease such as blood tests, stool tests, imaging tests such as ultrasound, computed tomography. especially colonoscopy.
