Gastroenterologist Questions

Should I be concerned?

Hi for the last two days I’ve experienced sharp and achey stomach pain as well as orange watery stool. Gallbladder issues run in my family and I had H Plyori back in September. I haven’t changed my diet and my appetite is the same. Should I go to the doctor?

Just 2 days of symptoms is probably not enough to require a doctor visit, but if the symptoms do not resolve after 1-2 weeks, or you develop blood in the stool, weight loss, then you should be seen.
