Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My lower back was hurting to point of not being able to stand long or walk for a long distance. I am an athletic Male 35 years of age and I am in the Military. I took a really good poop this morining and now my back isnt hurting. Do I need to go see a doctor to make sure this doesnt happen again. Also my pooping schedule is not normal. I go for 3 to 4 days and then poop but when I do its alot. Any suggestions would be great. thanks
Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your clinical history and query, my opinion is as follows: 1. Passing stools, once in 3-4 days is normal. 2. You need not meet the doctor now as there is no problem 3. However, try strengthening your back along with proper posture. Take diet rich in vit D and Calcium. 4. Have a fiber rich diet to pass stools regularly. Follow proper stools hygiene.
Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
