My mother died of liver cancer a few years ago. And from a few days I am having a bit loose motion and my digestive track is not working properly. After eating slight rich dish am having loose motion. The loose motion is associated with pain in various parts of the abdomen, sometimes right sometimes left and sometimes in the middle portion. Am upset and worried about my health; I am not able to concentrate on my studies due to this trauma. I have started taking Liv52 on my own without any prescription and looking forward to take Zandu Pancharist. [Note: My diet consist of the following Breakfast - Saffola Masala Oats Lunch - Any random dish readily available in college can note and Dinner - Mostly chhapatis with vegetables]

Hi lybrate-user. Sorry to hear about your mother's death. Your problem is that off and on, you have been having loose motions but you have not specified that weather in between there are episodes of constipation as well. The symptoms that you have related could be irritable bowel syndrome. Irritable bowel syndrome is a condition where our mental agony and stress affects the motion of our intestines or bowel. There are frequent episodes of loose motions in this problem and relief from mental stress actually improves the symptoms. So while the manifestation of problem is from the bowel but the focus area for treatment is the mind. Your first statement in the question is about your mother dying of liver cancer. But after that statement there is nothing in the question that relates to that first statement. Perhaps in your mind you suffer from the agony that you may also have cancer in future. Well, I believe first of all you should free yourself from such a thought. You are a 20 year young adult and there is no reason or rhyme that you should have thoughts on the possibility of suffering from cancer. Your symptoms are more related to indigestion and irritability of your digestive system rather than anything serious. Hence I would highly recommend that you unwind yourself and believe me when I say that your problem is stress. Hope my answer helps you. Regards.
